I feel you.
Having very seriously considered a wholesale move to Skyteam/FB Ult earlier in the year, it just wasn't going to work for this EDI resident.
There are just too many OW choices for me (AY, QR, AA all from EDI, even if I am trying to avoid BA), the connection from EDI to an outbound T5 international is too easy and too frequent, and the timings for my flights with BA too good in terms of being able to arrive in time for a day's work.
I will requalify as GGL with the help of bonus TPs and an old BAH booking and a spend of about £30k.
But as
KARFA suggests, I will re-assess next year in light of however they update the scheme again, and the decision will be based on the facts, not the feelings!
