Tesco vouchers to flights

[Prudie]

Has anyone successfully exchanged their Tesco clubcard vouchers for flights and if so do you have an idiot's guide - I'm going round in circles on their website.

When they were linked up to Air Miles I successfuly converted and then used the air miles to book flights. These days it's Avios, but the principle is the same:

online change your vouchers. You'll get an e-mail in a day or so saying they are there for you. Go onto the Avios site and book your flights.

Or if it's Monarch change them online for Monarch e-vouchers. When they arrive, go onto thw Monarch site and book your flights using the e-vouchers in full or part payment

The thing to remember is it's a two stage process

Thanks dzug. So it seems we have to register on Tesco.com and then again on Avios - Avios won't let me see available flight without signing up - does that seem right?

[rccatnap]

Yes, it does.

In the unlikelihood that anyone's interested I have now looked into this properly and am fairly peed off! I spent ages registering with avios, reluctantly giving them loads of personal info, because they don't let you see their flight offers first only to find they don't even go to where we want so total waste of time. We've been planning for months to swap our Tesco vouchers for flights but it can only be done for the flights of Avios or Monarch's or Virgin's destinations of choice.
