I need to achieve 1900 in 5 days. Was looking to do it through a BA holiday with lots of connecting flights in America but couldn’t make it work?! The only thought I had was to fly to the US on a BA holiday and then make up the difference by 3 AA flights a day! But is there an easier way?

That is a gruelling exercise! Why do you need 1900 pts in such short order?
(No criticism, just curious 🙂 )
There was someone on here that had similar ambitions, although I don’t remember their username – they posted their (equally gruelling) itinerary and I watched along with interest as they went from aircraft to aircraft.
Good luck!
@Skywalker – probbaly to reach Gold Guest List status.
BA Holiday unilkely to work anyway because (a) AA operated US domestic flights don’t generally get double TPs and (b) there is a limit to how many flights you can have on the same ticket.
But 5 days is a strange deadline.
Does the OP only have 5 free days for the trip (which won’t work as a BA holiday as that won’t be enough time for the 5 nights of hotel / car that need to be within the flight days.
Or are they needed in 5 days time which is a rather strange deadline date.
What about LON-DOH-XXX on BA flight numbers, returning the following weekend to be able to get the BA holidays bonus (call this one the holiday itinerary), and then also XXX-DOH-LON with the outbound immediately after arriving in XXX on the holiday itinerary and the return in time to catch the return for the holiday itinerary? More than 5 days in total but only ~4 days actually spent out of the country. That would be 1680, then something in Europe in the intervening week to get up to 1900.
