What is in a Gold welcome pack these days?
For the third year running, I did not receive my annual welcome pack. My Executive Club shows as dispatched, but nothing. I requested a replacement card and as in the previous years it showed up within the week. I don't have problems with postal theft so I can only assume it is yet another BA IT/James Hillier cockup. Anybody else suffer from this?
I am curious, what is in the welcome pack these days? Last time I got one was 2013 and I recall bag tags and a Golden Ticket, is it still the same?

And in a way I think that's the way it's going in the medium term: moving to e-cards on the apps. Doesn't help with luggage tags but I was emailed by hotel chain IHG the other week who offered me the choice of not sending the card out if I was ok with online recognition.
