Yes that's the shame really isn't it - as I say, I think a lot of people really want BA to do well and want to support it.
I don't entirely believe you re no longer wanting to hit O'Leary. Maybe a little less than before, but I'm sure the urge is still there!
Yes, the press they get for short-haul is genuinely terrible these days so if I were them I'd certainly be looking to do something. There's still...
Fair point - if you're just topping up for an award then any bonus is better than none. I think Simon said he bought the full allowance every year.
Something along those lines would have seemed the sensible option I think, but they'd have been better off starting a new brand 'BA Lite' or...
Yes I thought that was a particularly odd admission for the 'Anti-Points-Guy' - he travel hacks, just not very well.
Excellent summary that mirrors my experience completely. Ryanair used to be genuinely bad, but is actually ok now. The convenience / value from...
Oh I don't know - certainly busier on average I think, but not always bad. I've had whole rows to myself twice in the last few months!
Yes I'd agree with that actually - particularly for long-hauls if you've been away a while or to somewhere a bit 'exotic'. There was nothing quite...
No more food and drink included, Hand Baggage Only fares, 'quick cleans', less legroom than Ryanair planned, Avios devaluations, apparent bad...
That'd be great! - I just used the avios.com figures which are obviously (though inexplicably...) higher than BA.
I haven't looked at it for a while, but it used to be very interesting indeed - and certainly worth experimenting with. I'll dig out my cards when...
I did something along those lines here: https://insideflyer.co.uk/2016/12/new-aer-lingus-avios-sweetspots/
Yeah, it's still a decent programme but not many spectacular values left. Speaking of the card - have you ever bought something and refunded it...
Good point - which is why InsideFlyer should be part of their essential daily reading!
Good effort! - looks like you're down to the tricky ones now though!
I had no idea it was that many! Fascinating. How many have you managed to visit so far? I think I've departed or arrived at 12-13 off the top of...
Yes, I've got rather sick of seeing 'overlapping stay' - sometimes even for simple one room bookings!
Yes that was rather annoying - hope they have fixed it!
I didn't even know there was an airport in Gloucestershire!
