The easiest way to collect Avios is by signing up to Barclays Avios Rewards. Spend a night relaxing at home while your account does the hard work collecting for you. Because, once you’ve signed up to Barclays Avios Rewards, you start earning Avios towards an Avios Reward Flight. Kick back and collect effortlessly – as new Barclays customers could collect a total of up to 43,000 Avios in their first year.3 That’s enough for you to hit Miami’s bougiest boardwalks using 35,000 Avios + £756 or explore the Harajuku fashion scene in Tokyo with 40,000 Avios + £1007 – both peak, long-haul Reward Flights that will make your bucket list that bit lighter.
