Why a BA Holiday beats flight-only for status

On a BA Holiday, every £1 of the package — flights, hotel and car hire — earns a tier point. Book the same trip as flight-only and pay for the hotel separately, and only the flight fare earns; your accommodation spend earns nothing toward status. Whenever a meaningful chunk of your trip is hotel or car hire, packaging wins for tier points.

What counts toward tier points — and what doesn't

The total package price paid to BA Holidays before travel — including hotel and car hire
Add-ons like seat selection and extra bags earn 2 tier points per £1
The flight element of a BA Holiday does not earn separately — the package rate replaces it
Money spent at the hotel (resort fees, extras paid on arrival) earns nothing
Government taxes, APD and airport charges are excluded from flight-only earning
Avios reward-flight taxes and standalone hotel/car bookings earn no tier points
Points are split evenly between passengers aged 2+ on the booking, each needing their own BA Club number
