I'm not remotely party to any info on the relationship between BA and NCL but I've said it here before: Whether it's the airport's advertising that you can fly to destination X for £x via MUC when BA can get you there via LHR for £x-20; or their assertion when EK started that you can 'now' fly one-stop to e.g. Mauritius when BA had been doing it for about 30 years, NCL just don't appear to value BA as much as they should. I could of course be entirely wrong but that's what it looks like from where I'm sitting.
