British Airways' Black Friday 2025 sale is here, but it's different from years past. The standout offer is a 50% bonus on Avios earned through their shopping portal until December 28th, with rates reaching up to 21 Avios per pound at select retailers. Cash fares to North America start from £403 return, and European city breaks begin at £159, but notably absent are the major Avios redemption discounts we've seen in previous years. Jack breaks down exactly which deals are worth your attention, how to stack your earnings, and whether you should book cash fares or save your points for better redemptions.
