I look forward to seeing just how busy F Wing is at the start of private school holidays and ski season next year when basically every Gold member is the same London-based professional / used to be a professional retiree / professional family with children in private school in future!
I was told 2 days ago by a BA person that the number of GGLs losing status is being matched by new entrants, somewhat to the surprise of the person telling me. We shall see. In addition there GGL survey is being held back for now due to the onboarding of the new head of loyalty.
