Since anybody can Transfer their IB Avios to BA and redeem there, I suspect BA cannot be far behind. Although I do recall their promise to give advanced notice before increasing redemption Levels. Let's see if they stick to it, not like they did when adding change fees for Golds.
Maybe it's because they're about to be prohibited from charging fees on Partner redemptions when the Partners themselves don't charge them.
