RBC and British Airways bring back the 50,000 Avios sign up bonus for their Visa Infinite Card

The 50,000 Avios sign up bonus for RBC British Airways Visa Infinite Card is back! We received an email from a reader yesterday who took advantage of the bonus last fall with some concerns and while looking up the details from our old post we see that it has now returned!

The sign up bonus remains the same at 15,000 Avios however 35,000 additional Avios will be awarded to any
new cardholder who applies by May 31, 16 and spends $9,000 within the first 3
months of card membership. That’s right $9,000! Remember back in 2012 when it used to be $5,000 for that extra 35,000!

What can you get for 50,000 Avios? Just one example is 6
one way or 3 round trip short haul trips between Canada & North America in Economy Class(+taxes/fees).

Some additional details of the card are:

  • Receive 15,000 Avios upon approvalΛ.
  • Receive 35,000 bonus Avios when you spend $9,000 in the first three months account openingΛ.
  • Collect 1 Avios for every $1 CAD spent on qualifying net purchases*.
