## Summary

British Airways has put every seat on its 14 August 2027 flights from London Heathrow to Palma and Heraklion on sale for Avios only, from 14k Avios each way in economy, for members of The British Airways Club.

Economy to Palma is 28,000 Avios plus $10 round-trip, or 49,000 Avios plus $76.45 in business, and checked bags are included. Economy to Heraklion is 33,500 Avios plus $10 round-trip, or 60,000 Avios plus $80 in business. The Palma routing is BA494 on 14 August 2027 and BA495 on 21 August 2027. Heraklion is BA698 out and BA697 back on the same dates. Sale started 22 October 2026 and runs through 21 May 2027. Unsold seats may then be released to non-members.

Standard British Airways awards guarantee 12 to 14 seats. On these flights every cabin is priced entirely in Avios. Only the named mid-August 2027 flights are included. A companion voucher from a UK British Airways American Express card can be applied. The booking path matches any other British Airways reward ticket.

Book 14 August 2027 now if the dates fit, because the Club-only window closes 21 May 2027 and only those flight numbers apply.
