Flybe and Avios offer part-pay scheme
Flybe customers can now part-pay for flights using accrued Avios points.
As part of the airline’s extended Avios Travel Rewards programme, flights can be booked and partially paid directly through flybe.com.
Flybe passengers have been able to collect Avios for two years, and now they can offset the cost of a flight with as few as 1,500 Avios (equating to £7.50 off) and up to 4,500 Avios (equating to £22.50) off the price of a one way flight.
Passengers will still collect Avios on their flight pre the discount.
Customers can part pay easily by choosing a flight on flybe.com, inputting their Avios membership number, and then selecting the amount they would like to offset against their booking.
Flybe customers can collect up to four points for every £1 spent on Flybe flights, excluding taxes.
Avios can also be collected when flying with Flybe’s franchise partners, Loganair and Blue Islands, and they can be spent on Loganair, Blue Islands and Stobart Air.
