We wanted to get in touch to let you know that if the tier points from your impacted travel plans would have led to your tier renewing or upgrading, we will honour the tier you would have earned. Don't worry, you don’t need to do anything – your tier for next year will be automatically updated in your British Airways Club account by 1 April 2026.
