I will ring up soon anyway to try and get me some TP's for the BE JER-SOU-JER flight I took not long ago which now apparently qualify for TP's and miles, and if this gets through, I will be on 555TP's, in which case I would hope that BA would let me off, as 5TP's off is a bit of a rare case.

By the end of the summer, I will be on 320TP's if I do not get the 95TP's back that I will lose, and I will still have a MFU'd WT+ trip to JFK to get me 240TP's (pay for the CE leg, upgrade the WT+ leg) and I will have another 6 or so London trips, a few of which in CE so I will be fine. Qualifying for Silver after that will be difficult though!
Hi mikey,

Your JER-SOU-JER would surely only could if booked under a BA code ?? As far as I'm aware you wouldn't get anything for a flight booked under a BE flight code.
