Just came across something interesting today – British Airways actually has a Tier History dashboard, where you can see your status upgrade / downgrade in the past, as well as the reasons.
Link to the dashboard is here (you need to be logged in), and you will be presented with something like this:
There are some discussions in this Flyertalk thread. In Tier Change Reason you may see:
- Threshold – your status is upgraded
- Renewal Tier Threshold – you’ve maintained / renewed your current status
- Soft-landing-migration – your fail to renew your status and receive a soft-landing downgrade
- Discretionary Renewal – BA has decided to give you a courtesy renewal
Although the information here may not be accurate, it’s a fun piece of information to look at. And some day you might find you’ve received a “discretionary renewal”, and no longer need to do a tier run in that membership year!
