In the BA thread, FT'ers mentioned stacks of invites being available at immigration and at BA lounges, so perhaps the same is true at the UA terminal and lounges. You could also ask someone you know passing through LHR to pick one up for you. I will be going through LHR at the end of January and will pick up a bunch to distribute to FT'ers. (You would think UA would just have an employee get a bunch of these.)

Additionally, if you are BA Gold, call the UK Gold line (don't call the USA one - they won't know what you're talking about). BA ran out of codes for a short period of time but were giving codes out again as of 2 weeks ago.
