Behind the Scenes of My Tier Point Run - Part 1 Outbound

After 5 years I finally needed to execute a tier point run to re-establish gold status with British Airways. I'd already gotten half way to the tier point total I needed with a trip to Jakarta which I previously covered on the channel, and to complete the process I elected to undertake a "traditional" tier point run from Europe to the West Coast of the US.

In this video I'll show how the outbound flights went, how I coped with them and I'll share some tips for planning a trip like this. In part two, I'll talk about the return flights, which didn't go so smoothly....
