What Changed

Capital One miles moved to British Airways Avios earn a 20% bonus. Every 1,000 Capital One miles becomes 1,200 Avios instead of the usual 1,000. The bonus applies to transfers made from October 1 through October 31, 2026.

Our Take

This is a solid boost if you have a specific Avios redemption lined up, but don't move miles just because of the bonus. Transfers can't be reversed, and an offer like this tends to come around about once a year.

Before You Act

  1. 1Confirm award space for your planned Avios redemption before transferring
  2. 2Work out how many Avios you need and transfer only that amount
  3. 3Make sure your British Airways account name matches your Capital One account
  4. 4Complete the transfer by October 31, 2026
