Silver status – soft landing to bronze or straight to blue?

Hopefully the title gives enough info….thanks

Soft landing, don’t panic!

I don’t understand what’s being asked or replied.

I am silver and me and the wife have been since 2017 but we are now about to become blue in November…due to BA 2for1 and a covid accumulation of them over the last 18 months.

What’s a soft landing? and what is the difference between blue and bronze? We will miss free seat selection and lounge access when we lose silver, so what’s the point of bronze?

Soft landing = You drop only one level on expiry, you’ll drop from Silver to Bronze, not straight to Blue.

You still get priority check in, priority boarding and 7 days before seat selection (blue is 24 hours before).
