British Airways is offering a generous limited-time status match offer for U.S.-based members of its loyalty program, British Airways Executive Club.
New Avios credit card offers: Earn 75,000 bonus points plus 5 points per dollar on dining, groceries and gas

If you're planning a big getaway, taking advantage of sign-up bonuses across travel credit cards is a great way to offset some costs. And sometimes, this involves an international airline loyalty program.
There are currently identical limited-time offers on the British Airways Visa Signature® Card, Iberia Visa Signature® Card and Aer Lingus Visa Signature® Card.
The business-as-usual sign-up bonus of 75,000 Avios after you spend $5,000 on purchases within the first three months of account opening. And for a limited time, you'll also earn 5 Avios on every $1 spent on gas, grocery and dining in combined purchases (either up to $10,000 or for the first 12 months from account opening, whichever comes first).
TPG values Avios at a solid 1.5 cents apiece, so if you earn the full 75,000 Avios, you'd take home $1,125 in value. Then, if you max out the $10,000 cap in combined purchases, you'll add $750 of value, bringing your total haul to an impressive $1,875. That places it toward the top of our best limited-time welcome offers currently available.
All three cards boast similar benefits for a $95 annual fee, so here's a quick look at each.
