I don't really care about BAEC Gold, it's more about getting oneworld status. As I occasionally travel to the UK and USA, BAEC seems the most logical way. Plus with the soft landing I'll have status for nearly 3 years and won't have to jump through the hoops until Sept 2018.

Don't get me wrong, I love British Airways....but I think they're losing their direction (forgive the pun).
