You also have to be careful where you wish to use awards. BAEC has become very bad for availability on regional awards exHKG, AM much much better.
If you use awards in Europe, then BAEC is OK.
Surprisingly, I found BA has better redemption availability on JL and CX than MPO recently, it's weird, but that's the truth.....
