IHG Rewards Club BA/IB Avios Earnings Update Mix Up (Reverted)

Last week, I wrote about changes that IHG Rewards Club had done to stays credited to British Airways and Iberia Avios (read more here).

Turns out that this was a mistake on IHG’s part. Seems that the airline had updated the old version of the BA & IB Avios earnings, when adding Hawaiian Airlines to its partner airlines.

You can access IHG’s web page for airline partners here.

Conclusion

Personally, I would have certainly preferred the updated (really the old one) Avios earning for IHG stays. Under the current schedule, it make no sense to credit your hotel stays to either British Airways or Iberia Avios.
