Just received quite a remarkable email from BAEC:

ETA: As others downthread have reminded me, I did fly BA on Monday, so likely this was how I ended up being included. Not a bad result for a 45min tech delay then and 1hr WX today! |
Got it too. My girlfriend as well. That must be a bug. Two more years Gold which we just achieved for the first time? Can't believe that...
|
Yep. Got the same email!

Well this is interesting:

two year status extension due to 27 May issues
I'm not sure if this is related to the claim I filed today due to a cancelled flight on Saturday or they sent it automatically to those affected, but I had my status extended another two years regardless of TP's earned!

me too :) I was cancelled out of MPL on Saturday :(
I wonder if this is for all Exec members or just those inconvenienced last weekend? |
Goodness that's quite a decent idea and gesture.
[May be worth making a note in the Disruption thread if you are able to confirm that you were caught up in it] |
Same here!!

Yes, just got it too. I'm impressed. Although slightly gutted as I just shelled out 」800 on a flight that will renew my Gold status at the end of this month anyway. I could have saved the money! Still, I'm not looking a gift house in the mouth. I'll happily accept Gold for another 2 years and in the meantime I might look at moving back to Emirates or Star Alliance and rebuilding my status with them for the next year since I won't need to worry about BA TPs.
Edit: Just to add, I was flying last weekend but luckily on Fri and Sun so managed to avoid the disruption (although I was worried at one point that I might not make it back from YYZ if they couldn't get a plane out there). Has this email gone to all BAEC members? |

I'm Silver, just attained the status again this week at the start of the collection period. :o
(I was caught up in the shenanigans over the weekend FWIW) So as a gesture of goodwill, we’d like to upgrade your membership to its previous tier for another year. |
So... Not only Golds got it I guess? Did you guys had any flights at the weekend? Is every member getting this? They're losing a lot of TP runs ;)
As a background: we're both gold, had flights on Friday and Monday from LCY. So not immediately impacted. Currently Gold until June 2018, does this mean now until June 2020? That would be... Wow! |
