BA Holiday - Flight and 1 Day Car Hire?
Hi!
I’ve read about the double tier point promotion on BA Holidays. If I only really want the flights (as I can find the hotel cheaper), I was wondering:
if I booked a holiday with just the flights and one day of car hire, but ‘forgot’ to pickup the car.
would that:
1. Qualify me for the double tier points
2. Get me into any trouble (financial or otherwise) for not picking up the car?
ive read about people doing this as a tactic before, but wasn’t sure if it is still a thing
cheers!
