It must be the only FF scheme in existence where the actual routing changes the number of miles required. Meshing that with AA's hub & spoke operation is a mess.

I also can't square the promise of fair warning in the BAEC T's & C's with a 2 1/2 month wait that slapping on changes overnight with zero notice.

I think I said in another thread that BA has become a business I no longer trust, where my first reaction is to comb the small print. This is sadly another example of fairly dirty behaviour.
