Miles and TP's from flights on UL metal
anyone got any experience of how long they take to post?
got a couple of TP runs coming up with them so keen to plan out my 4 bits of BA metal while i'm back in Europe...

In my experience, sometimes they post quickly (within 3-10 days), other times they must be chased up, and boarding passes sent in to BAEC.
Even on the same ticket had some flights post promptly and others that needed chasing up.
What are the interesting TP runs on UL these days?

I have found over the past three years that Avios and TPs for flights on UL post reliably on the Wednesday following the first Thursday midnight (i.e. end of Thursday) after the flight. My last data points for this were in May:

Consistent with the above, if they haven't posted by 2 weeks following the flight you might consider starting to chase them up. See also:

Doing two of these runs as i have two business trips to Europe, and then finishing off to Gold with a couple of the required hops on BA metal.
