That is the nub of the problem. Cancellation has happened +2wks out ...... however there was no communication to me from BA. I only found out by accident on another aviation forum.

EI say they told BA and now its BA's problem to re-route me. Does the fact that the flight was cancelled +2wks get EI off the hook, or is it based on the date the customer is notified? (BA do have my contact details)


Funny thing is just before I discovered the cancellation, EI allocated seats for me via email even though the flight had already been cancelled.
