Important news for those travelling to India
BA is struggling to find capacity to India at the moment - not just due to the weather incident over the last 2 days but with several aircraft out and a 777 stuck in Baku.
Consequently if you are on a revenue booking to India from London Heathrow (but not in the other direction), on services which were cancelled, then BA is now rebooking travellers to Air India and Jet Airways. You can call the Contact Centres to enable this. The exception, for some reason, is that Jet service 117 to BOM cannot be used. This arrangement is in place for services up to and including 15 December. Avios is not available for this service (legally dubious this!) and Trade/Corporate need to liaise with BA support contacts to see what can be negotiated.
