Also, I have BAEC Stockholm syndrome.
Hahaha! I am definitely with you on the BAEC Stockholm syndrome. It is a great programme that happily keeps us captive.
Sure, being based in Dublin, where I connect for the most part isn't that big a deal, so it's more of an option to switch from my perspective.
If Aer Lingus had a business class in Europe, I would probably fly BA much more rarely.
