How to Use the British Airways Companion Voucher for Two—or Just Yourself

Travelling alone doesn’t make the British Airways Companion Voucher useless. The voucher offered through the RBC British Airways Visa Infinite can reduce a solo traveller’s Avios requirement by 50%, instead of covering a companion’s Avios on a British Airways Reward Flight.

1. Check your voucher before planning. Canadian travellers need to review the RBC card’s current qualification requirements and confirm that their voucher is available to use. The supplied offer does not specify spending thresholds, validity or booking restrictions; verify those terms before committing to a trip.

2. Choose how to use it. For two travellers, apply the voucher to cover the companion’s Avios requirement. For a solo booking, use the 50% Avios reduction. This is an Avios saving—not a promise of a free ticket or half-price travel overall.

3. Search reward availability. Have your British Airways loyalty account and voucher details ready. Check eligible flights for your departure airport and dates before arranging hotels or positioning flights. Don’t assume every flight or seat qualifies.

4. Compare the final bill. Review the Avios total, taxes, fees and voucher conditions before confirming. Canadian readers should assess the cash cost in CAD.
