It's not so great a problem with BA only bookings, because they won't auto-cancel the reservation. Other airlines quite rightly will, and apparently there's a priority queue for ticketing for this reason. I'm not confident that it will be fast enough.

What I can't understand is that the hard work of manual tax recalculation has been done - all that remains is to take payment, which surely should be a very simple process.
