Will the tierpoints be added to the old year (hopefully) or will they count in the new collection year?

TIA!

Further to my reply above I just noticed that you are also flying LHR to CDG. Presumably that flight departs from LHR on the morning of the 9th? If so the TP and Avios for that will post into the new year.

If you require them to get or retain status you could ask for them to apply using the grace period option offered by BA. But if you are also going for the reduced thresholds you may find that BA might not play ball.
