    How did you do It? I want to but it just says “contact customer support” and I doubt a manual process will be happening over Christmas.

  OT – Plaza Premium T4 Access
  Hoping to get in with 2 guests next week, ideally without paying an entry fee
  Can I get the 3 entries through a combination of amex platinum and priority pass?

  • Rob says:

    In theory no, as both the Amex and PP are in your name, but in practice they might let you if the alternative was you walking off and depriving them of the PP money.

  OT – when booking a BA Holidays package it says “The payment card used to make this booking MUST be brought to the airport in order to check-in”.

  Is this true? I plan to pay the deposit with a card I will cancel shortly and pay the rest with a different one.

  • Ali says:

    Theoretically they could ask for it at check-in, although almost never enforced. Though there’s a story of someone being denied boarding at OTP because they didn’t have the payment card on them. You could just bring the expired card and actual card along in case you need them…someone who’d lost their card asked BA this on Twitter and they said that a recent statement for the payment card would suffice.

      Thanks, I’ll make a note to keep the card.

  I recently booked and paid for a hotel in Alicante with a gold Amex that I subsequently closed before going on holiday. On arrival at hotel they required the card to be shown to verify booking. As this wasn’t possible they eventually accepted that my account was closed when I showed them my Amex app Never come across this anywhere else on my travels. So a good tip is don’t destroy old cards if you have made a travel booking with them, just pop them in the back of you wallet.

    I had this once. Never occurred to me that they needed to see the actual card. Most of the time a passport with my name and mug on it matching the booking and another card is enough.

    Find places in Spain are a bit over cautious
