That card looks good especially without the annual fee, however the Chase BA Visa gives you 15000 miles as a bonus to sign up. That would cost around $450 to buy from BA.

I just recently applied for the CC so that my next flight I can upgrade from WT+ to CW after having taken just one flight on BA in WT+. so $80 is basically the cost of getting a $1500-2500 upgrade.

Curious though, do they charge you the annual fee if you don't have any activity in a year?
