Thanks for updating us Noel. Many people come here amount for advice and never report back again. I’m sure this will be useful to many others and confirms what can be done.
Glad you had a good trip and hope to hear more from you.
I wonder though if it hadn’t been a QF FF number in the booking, say AirBerlin instead. Would QF have been so willing to give access to a BA Gold card holder in those circumstance?
Rules are rules but sometimes they’re not followed as smoothly as in your example, unfortunately.
