The point is that everyone comes across Avios, or points in different ways. For some, cash is tight and Avios are plentiful as a result of business spend or work travel. For others, both are abundant and others its inverse. Plenty of people choose any option that doesn’t mean forking over hard currency. I don’t see that as a problem and it seems overly analytical to use but one data point for a dynamic pricing system.

That sounds like a great excuse, but you should at least come clean with why you aren’t even mentioning the cash rates or valuations – I’m seeing it a bit over 0.4p per Avios (e.g. over 100k Avios for a 443GBP 2 night trip to Barcelona). Are you saying you legitimately consider this a deal or are you being coy with prices to get more people to click on your affiliate link?
