Like others, my application on 21st May took took near three weeks to be processed. Email confirmation on the 11th June with a 9th June effective date. Now to book some flights!
After many years of Gold, I soft landed to Silver last year due to a change in employer with reduced business travel. The 'Explore Gold' offer has arrived just at the right time for me, as it was going to be a struggle to maintain Silver.
Priority check-in and priority baggage (although I have had to offer to have all bags checked-in under my name occasionally to ensuring tagging) and priority boarding have been provided for me with travelling with another on the same booking - although it's far easier to 'justify' this when it's...

Would the bookings of the people in (row) 3 have been corporate bookings? My employer is a part of the Accelerate corporate programme. When I book via our corporate portal, this seemingly yields superior seating allocations that via the public booking site - however, I don't know if this method...
