Why this redemption is worth chasing
2.6¢ per point beats the 1¢ baseline you'd get from cash-back redemptions by a significant margin. The cash ticket runs around $130 for economy class — a good return on 5,000 points. Worth doing when you have the miles and a flexible date.

- Confirm award space first. Hawaiian Airlines award seats can disappear in minutes. Search for the specific dates you want directly on the British Airways Avios website (or use our award search to compare programs side-by-side first).
- Earn or transfer the points.If you don't already have 5,000 British Airways Avios points, transfer from a flexible bank-points card. Transfers usually complete within minutes.
- Book immediately after the transfer lands. Award seats can vanish between your transfer and your booking. Have the search results open when you transfer.
- Pay any fuel surcharges or taxes. Most awards carry $50-$300 in cash fees on top of the miles. Check the estimate before you transfer — it should still be a fraction of the cash ticket.
