This can save you a ton of money since British Airways\u2019 standard Reward Flight fares tend to charge some of the highest taxes and fees in the business.<\/p>\n<p>To be eligible for the \u201cSaver\u201d fares, you need to have earned at least one Avios in the past 12 months. Conveniently, if you\u2019re spending on your <a title=\"RBC British Airways Visa Infinite\" href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/go\/rbc-british-airways-visa-infinite\/\" rel=\"noindex\">RBC British Airways Visa Infinite<\/a>, you\u2019ll be earning Avios with each purchase, meaning that you\u2019re much more likely to find the \u201cSaver\u201d fares.<\/p>\n<p>During your reward flight search, you can easily find the Reward Flight Saver fares since they&#8217;re marked with a blue star icon.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443648&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not eligible for a Reward Flight Saver flight, or there are none available, you\u2019ll instead see standard Reward Flights which charge the full taxes, fees, and charges. As an example of what these fees could cost you, the RBC fine-print states that this could equal approximately $870 for a return trip from Vancouver to London in economy class. This is compared to the $300 in fees that is required if you\u2019re eligible for the Reward Flight Saver fare (shown below).<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443604&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Choose long and\/or premium flights&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;choose_long_and_or_premium_flights&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Another way to maximize your <strong>British Airways Companion Voucher<\/strong> is by using it for longer or more expensive flights. For example, you could use the companion voucher for a \u201cSaver\u201d level business class return flight between Montreal and London. This would get you two business class seats for 180,000 Avios and $1,500 in taxes and fees, saving you 180,000 Avios!<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443606&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Considering these flights are around $5,000 each if you pay cash, this can be a great way to get a lot of value out of your companion voucher.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443608&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443610&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Save with solo travel&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;save_with_solo_travel&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re inclined towards travelling solo, using the companion voucher to <strong>save 50% off your Avios cost<\/strong> is a great way to gain value with limited financial output. Not only will you only need to pay the taxes and fees for one person, but you\u2019ll also get half-off your Avios cost.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see from the business class redemption example above, this could save you tens of thousands of Avios.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Get more by going further&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;get_more_by_going_further&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>One final way to get some extra value out of your <strong>British Airways Companion Voucher<\/strong> is by travelling onwards from London to other destinations in Europe and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>After travelling from Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver to London and staying for a brief layover, you can continue on to loads of other destinations \u2014 just as long as all your flights are operated exclusively by British Airways.<\/p>\n<p>The number of Avios needed and the cost of the taxes and fees for these connecting flights will depend on your final destination, but as you can see from the images below the difference in cost may not be too much. The price difference for a return flight between Montreal to London and a return flight from Montreal to Rome (through London) is only 25,500 Avios and $2 in taxes and fees.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443640&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;443642&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Bottom Line&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;bottom_line&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The British Airways Companion Voucher is a nice credit card perk that can help you save money and Avios the next time you travel with British Airways.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of whether you&#8217;d like to bring a friend on a trip for free or just enjoy a nice solo adventure for a lower cost, there&#8217;s no wrong way to enjoy your companion pass.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for more ways to save, you can also check out our guides to the companion passes from <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/air-canada-worldwide-companion-pass\/\">Air Canada<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/westjet-companion-voucher-a-complete-guide\/\">WestJet<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/news\/viporter-companion-pass\/\">Porter Airlines<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='m'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--m container_count--3'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"226849,440387,270146\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-content\" style=\"top: 1em;\">\n\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-content\" style=\"top: 1em;\">\n\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-preview-content\" style=\"top: 1em;\">\n\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;FAQs&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;faqs&#8221;][vc_toggle title=&#8221;What is a British Airways Companion Voucher?&#8221; open=&#8221;true&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The British Airways Companion Voucher is a travel perk offered through the <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/credit-cards\/rbc-british-airways-visa-infinite-card\/\">RBC British Airways Visa Infinite<\/a>.
