British Airways Reward Flight sale - 50% of Avios on long haul rewards flights

[yld200]

BA Have launched a sale on the Avios required to make bookings on awards flights. 50% off long haul and 25% off short haul in all classes. It's a pretty decent offer if you have a stash of Avios. Reports of stacking the offer with an Amex 241 voucher also seem to work. BA's taxes are normally quite high but the points discount might offset some of that if there's a flight option that could work for you.

Only applies to BA metal and can be used from any destination.

I've been looking at some options for a flight back home with my companion voucher and found a few examples:
LHR>SYD 23/3 (off-peak) - 62,500 + £470
SYD>LHR 23/3 (off-peak) - 68,750 + £242
SYD>SIN 23/3 (off-peak) - 25,000 + £128

Fly further, for less
For a limited time only, you can use as much as 50% fewer Avios on any Reward Flight booked before 13 October 2020. With our extensive flight network, that’s a reward worth talking about.

Book a Reward Flight in our World Traveller, World Traveller Plus, Club World or First cabins for 50% off the Avios required. Alternatively, if you prefer to stay closer to home, you can book a Reward Flight for 25% fewer Avios in our Euro Traveller or Club Europe cabins. Book before 13 October for travel between 6 October 2020 and 30 June 2021.

If you don’t have enough for your chosen destination, you can purchase or gift Avios here.

A decent offer indeed if you're in the UK (the fuel surcharges aside), but it's only valid on BA metal. BA has suspended its SYD-SIN-LHR flight and I'm not ready to be booking any trips to the UK at the moment..
