Because it’s harder to earn Avios now unless on the highest fares?

Or a feeling that it’s more of an us and then nowadays with BA whereas before it was more of a cosy relationship with the world’s favourite airline?

I’m happy to claim UK261 where appropriate but other than that I try to take the rough with the smooth. The only time other than that was when I absolutely had to work on a flight to JFK and my flight was subbed to an old 777-200 with no wifi and as everything is now on SharePoint it’s v hard to work offline without any warning. And even then I didn’t ask for any compensation, just wanted to rant - but I did get sent some Avios.
