Soon, by the end of November at the latest, on every car, bus or train ride booked through the Uber app you will be able to earn free points simply by linking your British Airways Executive Club and Uber accounts.

Executive Club members can earn 1 Avios for every ÂŁ1 spent on any ride, by car, bus or train, booked on the Uber app in the UK. To celebrate the new partnership, members who link their Executive Club and Uber accounts via the Uber app will receive 250 bonus Avios.
Users simply need to link their Executive Club and Uber accounts, by entering their details in the Uber app in the settings section. Avios will automatically appear in each member's account after each Uber ride.
Andrew Brem, general manager of Uber UK, said, "We are excited to be able to help Uber users collect Avios on every single trip they take. So everyday trips, like going to work or to the stores, help you go somewhere a little more exotic with British Airways."
Ian Romanis, Head of Retail and Customer Relationship Management at British Airways, said, "Avios help open up the world, wherever our customers wish to travel. From beach vacations in the Indian Ocean, to city breaks in Europe and beyond, it's such a valuable currency that is so easy to collect-our members can easily do so as part of their daily lives. We are excited to welcome Uber on board to help bring our customers' travel plans to life."
