The way it works is quite simple:
1. If you have the points, you're in.
2. If you have a track record of 10yrs Gold or Gold x 2 or 3 per annum, you're in.
3. If you work for a company with a pricing deal (BTW you'll be with a BIG company with 250+ people flying J regularly) and you know the negotiator, you're in.
4. If you know someone senior (very senior) at BA, you're in.
Otherwise you have to hope that some of the stories above are actually true..good luck.
