Have you done 4 BA qualifying flights? If so look for a return one-stop route on AA and book in F which will earn 60+60 TPs each way. You just need to attach your BAEC number to the AA booking. That will probably be the cheapest way to get 240 TPs.

@rxfleming I don't fly domestic much. Almost all my travel is international for both family and business.
Flying business class internationally you would get lounge access anyway. You really need to look at your future travel patterns and weigh that up against BA Silver benefits.

Definitely want to hit Switzerland, France and Vienna as I'm used to them. Any tips on places to add on conducive for a honeymoon?
If your membership year ends on 8th Feb you would need to travel to earn the TPs before then.
