Reciprocal AA/BA FFP Announced
Just listening to BA's Q1 results call. One of the bullet points on the slides is entitled:

"Reciprocal FFP"

No details, but he said a further announcement in two weeks.

Discuss!

At lower redemption levels than us, and with no fuel surcharges to pay either.

Oh ...., the yanks will start flying BA, accumalate with AA, flood the lounges in T5 and add salt to our wounds by getting lower redemption rates!

Start burning those miles now as I think it's going to get a hell of a lot harder to use them in future.

The BA/IB schemes are pretty reciprocal now under OneWorld. It's almost certainly a reference to AA.
