Tier points changed to 80 on the BA service at the time the flight went from CW to CE.

However there was then a period when you still earned 140 on RJ (I think those who used the RJ flights hoped the different Tier point earning BA v RJ would remain as RJ were still providing a long haul product) and that continued until at least autumn 2021. However it had changed to 80 tier points on the RJ flights by mid November 2021. Seemed to coincide with the Executive Club IT system upgrade. Before the upgrade it was still 140 on RJ but after it changed to 80 tier points on the Tier point calculator also.

Does mean there is the anomaly that the shorter RJ flights AMS-AMM & CDG-AMM earn longhaul tier points whereas the longer LHR-AMM flight only earns shorthaul plus tier points.
