I was thinking of doing a Mileage Run for exp at the end of the year. But given that evips don't work for BA, and any BA redemption involves FS, I think the new world sucks big time. Since most of my exotic redemptions involve BA, this makes me rethink my AA commitment.
I'm in Luxor Egypt right now, and the cost of my "free" tickets would go up tremendously ($314 each, on top of the current taxes that are high due to a stopover in LHR).
On the other hand, BA just increased their earn rate on deep discount from 25% to 100%. Whose getting the short end of the stick here.
