Most likely I’ll be swapping BAEC for easyJet Plus. BA Premium Amex will go in the bin. 2-4-1 vouchers and Avios will be spent.

No more chasing status because my spend will not make Silver. I’ll fly the most convenient/direct route now rather than preferring to hop through Heathrow to collect TP’s. Truth be told it’ll probably make travel more simple and I’ll spend less. I might even try KLM when needing a connection.

The BA offering from Belfast has been diluted to now no better than easyJet. With easyJet+; same lounge, same fast track security, same cabin bags, priority boarding and free seat selection. Probably also able to purchase two seats cheaper than Club Europe on most days

Bold move by an airline still flying decades old premium products and whose hard and soft product offerings are consistently inconsistent.
