I just want to be sure, because I've booked return flilghts HEL-LHR-SFO in CE/CW next March and don't know wheather to credit my BA or Finnair account. If the old rules apply, I would get to the BA Silver level, but with the new rules would only reach BA Bronze.
You have to make 400 TPs before Feb/end (within your membership year). After March 1st it's 600 TP for silver. If you're silver March 1st you can then re-qualify for 2 years at 400 (grace period). Same applies for Gold but limits are 800/1500.
