Seems like extra hassle with extra clicks.

I usually just type "BA" followed by Ctrl+Enter in the address bar. Much quicker for me and also the redirect saves me typing in "BritishAirways" before doing the Ctr+Enter
Hi jbfield,

Unfortunately, it really depends on the set up of the system *some* systems are configured to prohibit the completion of URL using CTRL + Enter... or sometimes legacy browsers do not support this.

I am not exactly sure, or have a source to cite but there is a small chunk of active legacy browsers out there.
