TAs can still do more with GUFs than direct with BA.

It has been a while but here is why I love BA GGL. I need to get over to the US, from dear old Blighty, for a couple of weeks, mmm well actually three, and I need to do this inexpensively ----- for a number of reasons, not least because I need to demonstrate to more junior members of our team the value of thrift-------- so I booked an ex EU (OSL) Y+ 660 GBP fare into EWR with a return from JFK and used a GUF1 to, at the time of booking, to upgrade into J.
The goal for me now is to ensure I regain GGL this year and maximise the benefits as a self funded FF next year.
The more junior members of the team have paid GBP900 for their Y fares from LHR. (The trip to OSL for me to start this is GBP40 plus points.
)

I'm up to 3000 tier points now, post retaining my QF P1 for another year, and GGL is still looking feasible if I allocate all my upcoming flights to BA.
I've got my first joker, but I haven't tried to use it yet, given the need for all those remaining tier points.

For those who are interested - BA has now removed the extra TP requirement to qualify for the CCR. If you can manage to get a GGL card, it will now get you into the CCR (LHR and JFK). So no more white card. And still no access to the SIN CCR.

Well there are a few on AFF, so extrapolating that out would be, um, more than a few.
