I wouldn't call it damage, per se, but rather creative marketing. Excellent exposure & opportunity for many FF'ers & the travelling public to try/refresh themselves with BA's services if they haven't done so in quite some time, myself included.

Considering BA's current financial situation I wouldn't call it anything OTHER than damage. This wasn't in their marketing budget nor in their ad budget so with the amount of tickets I guess were sold they probably lost over 1 million dollars.
