Can I collect Avios with Aer Lingus?

Book your next getaway with Holidays with Aer Lingus. You can collect 1 Avios point for every €1 spent on your holiday. Holidays with Aer Lingus offer sun holidays, city breaks, USA holidays and cruises; all including Aer Lingus flights.



Absolutely. In 2026, Aer Lingus uses Avios as its primary loyalty currency through the AerClub program. You can earn Avios on all Aer Lingus-operated flights, with the amount earned based on the fare type and the distance flown. Beyond flying, Aer Lingus has expanded its 2026 partnerships, allowing members to collect Avios on Uber trips within the UK and Ireland, as well as through the "eStore" when shopping with major retailers. One of the biggest advantages for travelers in 2026 is the ability to link your AerClub account with your British Airways Executive Club account. This allows you to transfer Avios instantly at a 1:1 ratio, giving you more flexibility to book reward flights across the entire IAG group (including Iberia and Vueling) or on Oneworld alliance partners. You can also use "Pay with Avios" on the Aer Lingus website to reduce the cash cost of your flight, with redemptions starting as low as 4,000 Avios for short-haul European routes.
