I was really planning on dodging all BA coded flights because of the crappy 25% accrual policy. Is there written documentation somewhere about WT+ getting you 100% miles?

Cheers.
Yeah. The AA site lists T and W as being 100% plus 10% miles and 150% qpoint earning

It costs $600 on top of the LONE fare for all flights other than UK-Australia (or v/v) which is $900

BA WT+ has slightly wider seats , proper armrests plus 38" pitch. It is somewhat akin to QFs domestic business class spacewise I would say . The meals et al are still economy, but you do get served 1st
