Being used to European carriers I just didn’t even think about this problem. Even my BA Gold status was absolutely useless in this situation.

Next time I know obviously but I still feel kind of silly that I hadn’t even thought about this issue.
I don't think you would find an airline from any continent with desks open 5 hours prior to departure unless that airport had several flights in a short time period from the same airline.

What did you expect the BA card to do?
