LHR - BEY return and LHR - JNB return and have taken all 4 flights and nothing credited to my account in the form of bonus.
First flight was 11th January, GGL line confirmed my registration on the 9th January when I talked to them as given the initial hassle I wanted to make sure.

Yes, you will receive triple Avios when you fly with our partners American Airlines, Finnair and Iberia, only on flights between Europe and North America and where the flight has a BA prefix flight number.
You will also receive triple Avios on all domestic and regional BA (operated by Comair) flights within southern Africa.
Reward flights are excluded.

Hi. Can someone advise f I will get triple avios for a flight from DUB - JFK on Aer Lingus, but is a BA codeshare, and booked on BA's website?
I think not; I will just get the regular avios, but would appreciate the confirmation.
Thanks,

I am flying SFO-LHR in economy and with this promo, I should receive about 15K avios.
As Alaska MVP gold, if I credit the miles to alaska, I should receive 5K + 5K MVP gold bonus.
What is worth more? 15K avios or 10K alaska miles?

I registered for the promo and then booked 2 long haul flights.

I initially saw no bonus from a flight this Monday, but checked again today and saw that the extra avios from the triple promotion had been credited separately as "Special promotion". The special promotion quantity is 2x the base avios for each segment (as noted in the Ts&Cs, the tier bonus is excluded).
So I'm a happy camper at least!

All of my bonus points for flights flown and ticketed in the promo period posted today.
Flights flown in the promo period but where tickets were issued before the promo period did not accrue any bonus.

Looks like the batch processing post above is correct. Took a flight on 13 Jan, for which TP/Avios posted on 15 Jan, the bonus Avios appeared today (20 Jan). Took another flight today, will see when the bonus Avios post for that one.
Wont make as much out of this promo as the last, since that coincided nicely with some long F sectors on BA, but it is more than funding some recent SH redemptions that have generated siginficant savings against the cash fares (in the region of 9-10p per Avios value), so I'm fairly happy.

I believe this offer is limited to the first 8 sectors flown. Is it possible to remove my executive club number from the first and last legs of any ex-EU tickets (i.e. the short haul legs) so the offer isn't used up on shorter flights?
I suppose retro claiming for just the longer flights might be an option? But if possible it would be good to leave the exec club number in as many of the long haul legs as possible to avoid missing out on any potential gold benefits.
Many thanks
