This is the BA US information from their web site - clearly states that eligible flights will qualify for mileage and tier points. However this is still confusing as it does not actually state that the flights will be eligible! And of course the information is only relvant to members of the US exec club and not the UK. BA don't seem to have a similar information page for RTW for UK travellers which appears remiss.
