    Yes, according to several posters over on FT.

    When does double tier points not mean double tier points? I took a BA holiday to Dubai in early November and my 300 base tier points posted almost immediately. My “double” points have now posted multiplying my 300 points to 580! I assume this is to do with my flying back via Doha which gave me 20 points and that this has been missed. Has anyone else had this issue? I tried to ring the exec club Silver line but my call kept being dropped so I have had to raise a complaint.

    Did DXB-DOH have a BA flight number? If no, it might not qualify for the double TPs.

    You really need to provide full details of the individual flight routings, cabin class and operator to get a peoper ansder

    As @NorternLass says this is likely because you had an internal flight without a BA code share

    As the T&Cs state

    c) The booking must contain British Airways flights including codeshares and British Airways marketed and/or operated flights only. Flights not meeting these criteria within the booking won’t be awarded Tier Points. Flights offered as part of a British Airways Holidays package that are provided by other airline partners that do not have a British Airways flight number will not be eligible.

    Long time lurker and relative newbie here 🙂 looking at my first BAH.

    How best to find a decent-ish deal next April/May ex JER to US west coast via east coast in F – to get Gold in one trip?

    Many thanks!

    @flyingbanker April has Easter holidays and there’s demand for those considering a holiday between Easter Monday and May day bank holidays, so I wouldn’t look at April.

    Look at the period in Mid may that is away from the bank holidays and use BA’s holiday finder tool.

    Anyone know what would happen with a BA Holiday booked now that starts before 31st March but ends after?
