Usually when I fly BA it is either all BA, AA/BA, WS/BA or BA/CX so I only have to change my FFP on the last one (and CX seems to be able to credit correctly each time.)
Was the problem using your GDS or BA GDS?
Its very specifically BA's GDS only. QF doesn't have this problem and it uses AMADEUS, and neither does LH. Actually, no, LH sometimes has this problem too. But so far, neither SQ or CX has this particular issue and they can change FFPs one segment at a time. (All mentioned above use AMADEUS as their GDS). But for BA's it seems that it must be changed BEFORE check in. Apparently once the airline checks you in, and even though you haven't yourself, nothing can be changed beyond that. Something I might try to do before my flight from HKG to LHR this weekend.
