Qatar Airways<\/a> has partnerships with several airlines that are not part of the Oneworld Alliance, such as LATAM, Rwanda Air, and Garuda Indonesia<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/a><\/p>\n

This opens up opportunities to use your Avios from various programs (IB\/BA\/AY\/EI) for these partner flights that are not available from their native programs. Privilege Club award requirements are often much better than those of i.e. BA or Finnair\u2019s (always check).<\/p>\n

You can access Qatar\u2019s page for Garuda Indonesia here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You must link your various Avios accounts with BA first and then launder them through them. These transfers should all be instantaneous.<\/p>\n

Qatar Privilege Club Garuda Indonesia Award Examples:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Jakarta (CGK) \u2013 Hong Kong (HKG)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jakarta (CGK) \u2013 Amsterdam (AMS)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jakarta (CGK) \u2013 Sydney (SYD)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Jakarta (DPS) \u2013 Bali\/Denpasar (DPS)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Flying Blue Examples:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can redeem these flights from various SkyTeam programs, including Flying Blue.<\/p>\n

I have generally found Flying Blue miles very bad value for partner awards, but it seems that they might have a special deal with Garuda Indonesia (a former KLM colony\u2014so there\u2019s a link).<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have really come to like redeeming Avios through Qatar Airways. If you link your Privilege Club account with BA, you can \u201cwithdraw\u201d the Avios during the redemption process.<\/p>\n

You should link your various Avios accounts with BA NOW so that you are set up when you need to move them around.<\/p>\n

If you have miles\/points with several programs or can convert them from the banks, you should check which program is the best for your specific award. I was surprised how well Flying Blue would work with these Garuda Indonesia flights.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
