Final Chance for Status Match + Points Transfer from bmi to British Airways

Come December 31st, now just two days away, the bmi Diamond Club will shut its doors for most of the world. If you’ve neglected transferring any destination miles from your bmi account to your British Airways Executive Club account, it is now or never. Same with a status match.

After numerous e-mails and even a couple snail-mail letters from bmi, I finally got around to transferring my remaining 379 miles and requesting a status match last week. It did not take long to do, though I experienced some difficulty in finding where to do it. So I’ll help out all you procrastiantors.

1. Request a Status Match

Okay, this was easy. Just fill out the form here and give BA a couple weeks to update your status.

2. Transfer destination points from bmi to BA

• Log into your British Airways Executive Club account (if you do not have one, you can create one here)

• Click the red “Combine My Avios” button at the bottom of the page

• Select “bmi Diamond Club” from the “Select your Programme” drop-down and input your bmi membership number and password
