if i were in it to hit my BA spend for GGL i would have, but now the goal posts are so far out, 12k for BA FIRST is laughable because again, compared to literally anyone else in a similar price range (JAL/Emirates), they cannot justify.
In the list of all the routes where one might choose pay their own money for a revenue BA F, TYO-LHR must surely be at the very bottom - who in their right mind is choosing BA over JL/NH?

(Let alone SQ Suites at less than half the price - you will soon be asking yourself what took you so long!)
