BA Amex Premium Plus Review UK 2026: Companion Voucher

The £300-a-year flagship BA Amex earns 1.5 Avios per £1 and unlocks the multi-cabin Companion Voucher at £15,000 spend — the single most valuable perk in UK travel cards, if you can clear the threshold.

Free Virgin Reward Mastercard Review UK 2026

Virgin Money's no-fee Virgin Points card earns 0.75 pts/£1 and unlocks a companion or upgrade voucher at £20,000 annual spend — a slower-burn alternative to the paid Reward+ card.

Free Barclaycard Avios Review UK 2026

Barclaycard's no-fee Avios earner gives 1 Avios per £1, with an upgrade voucher historically available at a high annual-spend threshold — a Mastercard alternative to the free BA Amex for retailers that don't take Amex.

Barclaycard Avios Plus Mastercard with UK passport and long-haul boarding pass — premium travel rewards flat lay.
Credit Card Reviews

Barclaycard Avios Plus Review UK 2026

A high-street paid Avios earner that matches BA Amex's headline rate and undercuts it on upgrade-voucher spend — but skips the one perk, the companion voucher, that actually justifies a premium travel card fee.

Amex Gold UK Review 2026: Membership Rewards & Deliveroo

A free-for-year-one points card that pairs a genuinely useful Avios and Virgin Points transfer ratio with a £120 Deliveroo habit — as long as you clear the balance every single month and don't mistake it for the British Airways Amex.

Virgin Atlantic Reward+ card with passport and Upper Class boarding pass — premium UK travel credit card flat lay.
Credit Card Reviews

Virgin Reward+ Mastercard Review UK 2026

A paid-tier Virgin Money Mastercard that earns Virgin Points and an annual companion voucher at £10,000 spend — solid for existing Flying Club flyers, less compelling now that lounge access has been quietly dropped.

Free BA Amex Card Review UK 2026: Avios & Companion Voucher

A genuinely free way into the Avios ecosystem, but don't mistake the zero annual fee for generosity — the flat earn rate and steep £15,000 companion voucher threshold mean this card only pays off if you were spending the money anyway.
