Spending Avios

How do I redeem Avios on my Discover Qatar Booking?

Payment using Avios can only be done by Privilege Club members on their Discover Qatar Booking when selecting ‘Pay with Avios’.
The members can also choose to ‘Pay with Avios’ on Discover Qatar Bookings for nominated family members or any individuals of their choice. 

How much Avios do I need to be able to spend Avios on my Discover Qatar Booking?

Avios required for the Discover Qatar Booking varies according to the value of the service(s) or product(s) selected. The members must have the required minimum balance of 2,000 Avios in their Privilege Club account in order to use Avios for their payment of the Discover Qatar Booking. 

Can I get a refund of my Avios if I cancel my booking?

Cancellation of your Discover Qatar Booking is subject to the Discover Qatar’s refund policy.
For more information about Discover Qatar’s refund policy, please refer to the link https://www.discoverqatar.qa/terms-and-conditions/
In the event that the booking can be cancelled, your Avios would be refunded back to the member’s Privilege Club account.    

Can I combine my British Airways and Qatar Airways Avios to pay for the Discover Qatar Booking?

Pay with Avios on Discover Qatar Booking is available only for Qatar Airways Privilege Club members.
You can link your British Airways and Qatar Airways accounts and transfer Avios to your Qatar Airways Privilege Club account in order to use ‘Pay with Avios’ for Discover Qatar Booking.

Can I make payment with Avios if I am modifying the booking?

If the initial payment for the Discover Qatar Booking is settled partially with Avios and cash or card, then any additional fees or taxes differences that arise as a consequence of any booking changes will be adjusted from the cash or card component (Avios element shall not be adjusted). If the additional fees or taxes exceed the value of the cash or card portion, or if the purchased booking(s) is settled using Avios alone, the members must settle the additional fees separately using cash or card as Discover Qatar may request. After such settlement, Avios component (if any) will be refunded.

Can I combine my Avios with another Privilege Club account to pay for the same Discover Qatar Booking (i.e. same transaction)?

No, Privilege Club members cannot combine Avios with another member to redeem in the same transaction. The members, however, have an option to transfer Avios from one Privilege Club account to another in order to make a payment for the Discover Qatar Booking.
