If you go the ba Amex route and aim for an off peak redemption you should collect enough avios for First.
Ahh yes, both are posts over lapped! I have given the Ba prem card a thought numerous times and have read up extensively. Only issue is that I do not generate enough avios points every year to redeem for j or f redemption ticket. It's taken me roughly 2 years to pile up these Amex mr points. Thai includes my wife's gold card bonus points, referrals etc.
I'm looking to do 2 weeks actually I just used those dates as an example really as I could see there was availability.

Does anyone recommend any other one world airline?
