Definitely NOT worth redeeming for a UK dom.

Going to EDI for a friend's stag-do in April on BA. He is redeeming 12k BA miles + £46.10 taxes and fees flying from LCY. I'm paying £136.50 all-in for the same price.

There is NO WAY IN THE WORLD that 12k BA miles are worth 90-odd-quid!

I suspect the same applies for BD redemption - even if it is at a lower 10k.

Besides which, I suspect there will be an award inventory meaning you have to be hyper-flexible if you really, really, really want to redeem miles.
