I can earn 2,500 TPs by BA Amex spending.
It left only 5,500 TPs for me to earn through travelling with other non-BA marketed flights.

I usally travel the LHR-HND route. I found that for the JAL operated flight with BA-marketed (BA coded) are much more expensive than the JAL operated flight without BA-marketed (only JAL coded). I don't think I will pay the extra money to earn extra TPs. What I can think is that, I will make the future booking by BA Holiday, so the tax and charges will be counted. Do you all have any more ideas to maximize TPs? Thank you.
Yes, BA Holidays will work well in this regard, buy an expensive suite at a hotel (if BAH actually offer one) and you hardly have to do any flying. This was almost certainly their intention. Other things to do are obviously to maximise the price of tickets- avoid Saturday night stays, tick the box for flexible conditions. TP running has certainly turned upside down!
