We don't know for certain the QR deals won't earn It is unclear how BA would know the booking date. I wouldn't advise folks book if they need the TPs & avios, but I have a suspicion that they may get them anyway.

Also there is already a premium fares board here http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/premium-fare-deals-740/ which covers all airlines. If this is going to cover all airlines too it would end up being a mere copy of all that is on board which would seem pointless, and it would not be focuesd on BAEC earning so it would be moved elsewhere on FT.

I am sure most appreciate a BA/oneworld focused thread which can happily exist on the BAEC board. There are plenty of other threads/boards alreeady to get your non-oneworld deals fix.
