For many Avios collectors, 100,000 points feels like a significant milestone. It’s enough to turn everyday spending, credit card bonuses and a few flights with British Airways, Iberia, or any of the other Avios earning airlines, into something much more exciting: a long-haul adventure, a premium cabin experience, or even multiple trips across Europe.
