- Everyone else still gets the 25% reduction in tier points until 31 December. This also applies if you want to qualify for a higher status level.
Card TP End Date June 23
Will I get a new silver card from July 23?

No, it means for everyone with a card expiring before 31 Dec is eligible for the reduction. So you’d need the 600.

Do they TPs and 4 flights have to post by 31-Dec or flown by 31-Dec? May have a flight on 30 or 31 Dec.

I think, but just think, I got it... Been reading through the Wiki, the "sum it all up" post and a few others, so just to verify whether I have understood this correctly:
Just a yes or no answer is sufficient (I know what "no" implies: the -25% rule doesn't work this way and the December 31 date is basically irrelevant, gotta earn 1,500 TP till January 8 2023 then).
Also, "yes" or "no" is shorter than berating me for not having read, understood, etc. just in case someone is tempted
- Currently Gold, status valid till January 8 2023
- If I earn 1,250 TP and make 4 flights on BA metal until December 31, 2022, then my Gold status is extended until January 8, 2024

- 'Marketed' means the flight will have a BA flight number (in your itinerary or on your ticket).
- 'Operated' means the aircraft that you travel on is a British Airways aircraft (including franchises and BACityflyer).
- 'Marketed and operated by Iberia' means the flight will have an IB flight number and the aircraft you travel on is an Iberia aircraft (including franchises).
