Gold Guest List BAEC members get 2 "Jokers" per membership year, which allow us to use Avios to book seats even when there is no availability on those flights.
For example, if I book LHR-SIN-SYD return in CW and there's no Avios availability to upgrade to First, I can use my Joker for up to 5 people on the booking and pay the Avios for those F upgrades on all 4 of those long haul sectors.
There are some T&Cs and limitations but ultimately that's what it is. Basically the one shining benefit of being loyal to BA, these days.

However if the fare was designed to expire, then the PNR will usually be set to expire together with the fare.
