Paging Graham R Reid, ref your lost BA luggage tag
So I picked up a silver luggage tag that had fallen on the platform at Oxford Circus. Happy to return it to the owner, DM me if you are on here.

If you do not get the owner here, I guess that if you send it to ba they should return it to the owner?

I see these “found credit card posts” on Facebook and would be mortified if it was me, I’d of course cancel and reorder

When was the last time a silver luggage tag was even issued?

I think that's the point, it's clearly a valuable antique...

Around mid 2020. I managed to snag a card and luggage tags when I first became Silver around that time before they eventually got pulled.

Silver is nothing to be ashamed of. Rust, on the other hand…

Rust is nothing to be ashamed of, but bragging or caring about it is.

I’m happy with my Silver status. (Grateful to have managed to keep it, tbh)

I've thought in the past there should be a Y/Y+ Vs J/F split. I appreciate that there is a higher % of premium travellers on here than in normal life, but I'd bet most travellers in Flyertalk still fly paid Y.
I came to this forum to try and work out which status I should work towards as I fly regularly long haul, but as it's predominantly eastwards I quickly realised to go for the best airlines/times and utilise Avios for family holidays using RFS. Works well, I'm on 9 different airlines so far this year, which could have been BA+1 other if I was so minded (actually, also if they'd have kept BKK in place).
