Avios is the high-fidelity reward currency shared by several major airline loyalty programs, including British Airways, Iberia, Qatar Airways, Finnair, Aer Lingus, and Vueling. In 2026, the "Avios ecosystem" is more flexible than ever, allowing you to transfer points instantly between these accounts at a 1:1 ratio. Because these airlines are members of the Oneworld alliance, you can also earn and redeem Avios on more than 30 other partner airlines, including American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, Qantas, Japan Airlines, and Cathay Pacific. Additionally, Qatar Airways has high-fidelity partnerships with non-alliance carriers like JetBlue and Virgin Australia, further expanding where you can use your points. This makes Avios one of the most high-fidelity and versatile currencies for global travelers, as you can earn on a short hop in Europe and redeem for a luxury Qsuite flight to the Maldives.
