Our verdict

Who should consider it?

The strongest Avios earning card here for regular British Airways spend, with a companion voucher that can be used in any cabin.

The headline points total is only one part of the decision. Work out whether you will naturally meet any spending target, how you plan to use the rewards, and whether the ongoing benefits outweigh the fee. Never spend more just to collect points.

What stands out

  • Companion Voucher after £15,000 annual spend
  • Voucher can be used in any cabin, subject to availability
  • Travel inconvenience and travel accident cover

What to watch

The £300 fee means the benefits need to outweigh the cost for you.

American Express says the earn rate will change to 1.25 Avios per eligible £1 from 7 October 2026, including BA spend.
