I wasn't going to bite at this because my mom always said 'if you can't say something nice...' - but since others have commented I agree that the handling of this could have been better.
At the end of the day, we have a report saying BA has denied access because QF doesn't want to pay. I can probably believe this was a statement by BA to try and make themselves look better, and could be due to other reasons such as overcrowding.
However, I also believe that everything has its price. Overcrowding might be overlooked if QF was willing to fork out GBP25 per entry (or whatever).
So to that end, this could have been resoved with a simple phone call along the lines of 'how much will it cost us to extend the agreement to Galleries Lounges'...
If QF had come back and said we need time for the board to consider the additional expense I could understand... but to i'm not sure I accept it is going to take days (on top of the month or so already) to get a price from BA.
