News in brief:Avios has a partnership with Uber in the UK which allows you to earn 1 Avios per £1 spent on UK rides. It also pays out on train tickets booked via the Uber app. This HfP article explains how the Avios / Uber promotion works. Whilst this has not been widely promoted, the deal has now been extended to cover Ireland. Anyone with a British Airways Club number in their Uber account will now also earn on Irish rides. The reason for this is that Aer Lingus has just become an Uber partner too.
