  OT: Looks like I’m going to fall about 15k points short of retaining spire elite from IHG, after my December ihg cc credit card spend hits the account on Dec 22nd.
  So, im guessing I should transfer some vs miles to retain spire?? If only for the 25k amenity bonus??

    I’ve just transferred 10k to gain Spire…. took exactly 2 weeks to hit my IHG account though.

      I experienced similar timing earlier in the year.

        Oh dear. Do bought points, or the old book c+p and cancel trick qualify for status?

          No.

  I understand that BA are now planning to fly all flights on those days via their contingency plan. I do see they are now selling BA flights to Belfast on Boxing Day. They weren’t last Saturday.

    All destinations or all flights? Unless they are forcing other crew to work on Christmas Day at short notice (which would go down well …..) I don’t see how that can be done. BA won’t even known until the day who is showing up.

      The Independent reported that BA said all flights. But yes, that would indeed seem unachievable given the circumstances.

      They are offering all other staff (inc. head office) double pay according to a FA yesterday.

        And yes planning to run all FLIGHTS as normal.

      Advice to travel agents is

      “British Airways is planning to operate all flights across the strike period.

      All flights to/from London Gatwick (LGW) and all flights operated by BA CityFlyer to/from London City (LCY) are not affected.

  OT: BLACKCIRCLES currently offer 3 clubcard points per £ spend in Michelin tyres.
  In my case saved me 1000+ points on tyres I was going to buy anyway and price in my case was good.
