Hey, at least they corrected their mistake within 24 hours.

In the past few days, BA have sent me two e-mails.

1. The latest issue of The Club magazine. Despite being asked to select both language and location, I was then linked to an article extolling the many ways of earning miles, but only if I was resident in the UK or the US.

2. An e-mail announcing a fantastic sale. When I clicked on the link (book before April 10), I got a message saying the sale had ended.

I do not really expect BA to correct either mistake.

I understood from alot mer the posts in this thread that ST elites are not given extra baggage on delta and ST airlines, to the best of my knowledge and this link confirming, it is wrong, we do get. And also why is baggage allowance not mentioned at all in the skypriority silver email update? Can anyone clarify please?

Extra baggage allowance for Skyteam Elite (Plus) members was introduced a few months ago.

Why they did not state this earlier? My guess is that the SkyPriority benefits relate to benefits at the airport and not the benefits "on the flight".

Thanks, why do you write elite "(plus)"? Silver = elite, also gets this benefit, as per above.

Does anyone know when the start date is for the Sky Priority for Amsterdam Schiphol?
Sincerely,
SB

I believe it will be introduced from March, see my photo on the previous page. No exact date as yet (known to us).

Still looked exactly as in the picture two days ago.

"Coming soon in March"

But which March?

2012, as per their information that is:p

March is going to end in less than 9 days.... Maybe it is an April fools joke :P!
SB

"as of the end of March 2012"
 

Flying Blue news states "as of end of March 2012", so not long to wait ;)

I'm in transit through AMS in early April, so hopefully I might be one of the first to experience it :p

Because the extra luggage allowance is for Elite and Elite Plus members, i.e. Elite (Plus) members.

This month's Holland Herald has an article on the introduction, which specifically mentions Platinum and Gold elites. Not a word about Silver elites.

Still not received that email. It is that others have posted it here...
:td: for FB

Was reading the AF mag, where there was a nice photo of what the Skypriority area looked like. The sign clearly said 'Flying Blue Plat/G/Silver' but didn't say FB Elite Plus.

I also had no issues with any security with my companion who is a Silver with elite access lines in both CDG and AMS. Naturally, the elite line at Schiphol was better managed and actually was a benefit, unlike the one at CDG :) I can't see why they want to change anything at Schiphol - I always arrive around 45 minutes before my flight, check-in, get a sandwich downstairs, and fly. It's perfect and there's never a line really. I guess too much DL pressure.......
