Finnair and IAG Loyalty are partners that allow customers to link their loyalty program accounts.
For the first time, the new relationship will allow members to link their Finnair Plus and British Airways Executive Club accounts, allowing the seamless transfer of Avios between both loyalty programs.
This move is the next step of Finnair officially adopting Avios as its loyalty currency, following a partnership with IAG Loyalty.
From 22 May, customers will be able to transfer Avios between accounts by simply logging into their Finnair Plus account at finnair.com and choosing to link their British Airways Executive Club account.
British Airways customers can also easily transfer their Avios to Finnair by logging into their Executive Club account on ba.com and linking this with Finnair Plus.
As part of the move, members can transfer Avios as often as they wish, up to any value.
This means members holding Avios on their British Airways Executive Club account will now be able to transfer their Avios to a Finnair Plus account and use them, for example, to upgrade their travel class on a Finnair flight or vice versa.
