I'm stuck in New Orleans due to weather on a double tier point qualifying BAH. Originally supposed to fly back on Tuesday but cancelled due to the storm. BA auto-rebooked me to the same route leaving tomorrow. This flight has also now been cancelled and they rebooked me on Saturday's flight. Unfortunately I can't do this as I need to be back in the UK before Sunday in order to make another (unrelated) BA trip.

I spoke to BAH and they were extremely helpful and have rebooked me to leave MSY via AA to Chicago, then Chicago (BA metal) to LHR.

After the first cancellation when it was the original route but +2 days it remained showing as 560 (140 x 2 x 2). After this re-routing it says "Sorry, we are unable to display how many tier points you will earn from this trip".

Anyone know what I'm likely to get? If I got extra for the AA leg that would be awesome, but I'm also worried I might not get anything as these could possibly go down as non-revenue flights?
You can get original routing credit which will include double tier points. Contact the exec club when you return, and keep hold of your original booking e-ticket receipt just in case of queries
