I took a quick look at the feasibility of putting some of my high value hotel spend into BAH - at least judging by the BAH website, it seems quite difficult.

In Vegas: all the high end (multiple bedroom, $2k+ type room rate) suites aren't offered on the BAH website. They seem to be only available to book online on the hotel/casino's own site.

In South Africa: the Villa only resort I stay at isn't on the BAH website as an option. And the luxury 5* hotel nearby, BAH only offer their most generic rooms, not any of the suites or villas.

Is this a case of calling BAH up to access the more bespoke room types, or is BAH more a of a "one size fits all" type operation? And if so, why are BA trying to push us to spend huge amounts of money on a programme not particularly well setup for those who spend a lot of money on hotels?
