British Airways Transfer Partners & Conversion Calculator

British Airways transfer partners

British Airways is a direct transfer partner of several rewards programs including two major Canadian credit card rewards programs: American Express Membership Rewards and RBC Avion Rewards. You can also convert Qatar Avios and Iberia Avios into British Airways Avios as well as transfer points from a handful of hotel loyalty programs to all of these participating Avios programs.

Here's the list of transfer partners you can use to earn British Airways Avios in Canada:

AMEX points to British Airways

American Express Membership Rewards points can be converted into British Airways Avios at a 1:1 ratio. Every 1,000 AMEX points you transfer will give you 1,000 British Airways Avios.

If you're looking to earn lots of Avios on everyday spending, the Membership Rewards program will be the best option.

RBC points to British Airways

RBC Avion points can be transferred to the British Airways Executive Club program at a 1:1 ratio if you have one of RBC's premium Avion credit cards. Every 1,000 RBC Avion Elite points you earn can be converted into 1,000 British Airways Avios.

Marriott points to British Airways

Marriott Bonvoy points can be transferred to the British Airways program at a 3:1 ratio meaning that every 3,000 Marriott points you convert will give you 1,000 Avios. On top of that, you will earn a bonus 5,000 Avios for every 60,000-point block of Marriott points you transfer in a single transaction.

This means a 60,000-Marriott Bonvoy point transfer would net you 25,000 British Airways Avios.
