Finnair Plus: the transfer partner that quietly unlocks oneworld
Most transfer partners lock you into one airline's own schedule and pricing. Finnair Plus doesn't. Your Avios work across Finnair, British Airways, Qatar Airways, Iberia and more, so a transfer here opens the whole oneworld network, not just one carrier's seat map.
Terms and Conditions apply.
How it works
1
Sign up to Finnair Plus
Free, and faster than finding your actual passport. Enter your details, verify your email, switch on two-factor authentication.
2
Transfer your points
From Passport Rewards, choose Finnair Plus, enter your membership number and transfer in multiples of 1,000. No dilution, no catch, 1,000 points stays 1,000 points.
3
Move on, or redeem
This is where it gets interesting. Book directly with Finnair, or link your accounts to send Avios on to British Airways, Qatar Airways or Iberia, three more airlines with three more route maps to choose from.
Take it further
Avios is a shared currency, so your points aren't locked into Finnair. Link your Finnair Plus account to British Airways Executive Club and move Avios between them at a 1:1 rate, for free, with no limit on how much or how often.
Finnair Plus → British Airways
Linking your accounts
Linking Finnair Plus to British Airways Executive Club unlocks the rest of oneworld, and lets you compare award prices between Finnair's zone-based chart and BA's distance-based one, so you can pick whichever is cheaper. Both accounts need two-factor authentication switched on first, a one-off setup that takes a few minutes.

Going further: Qatar Airways or Iberia
There's no direct link from Finnair Plus to Qatar Airways or Iberia yet, so route through British Airways Executive Club as a midpoint. It's one extra step, but your Avios are never stuck in a single programme.
