I agree there will always be someone else you can fly with
I just feel that telling previous frequent flyers that the only way they can maintain status is by first flying with a competitor to get them somewhere BA is flying from seems a little Ironic
what would possibly help would be if BA allowed me to book connecting flights on their website using S* airlines to places BA do fly from, in the same way QR does
