Hi

I was on the 19:20 service from LBA to LHR this evening which was eventually cancelled. Im now back home and flying out from MAN tomorrow

There were alot of passengers flying to N. AMerica tomorrow who took cabs to Heathrow for £250-£300. The BA staff adviced them to takr a cab and claim it back from BA. For some passengers, the BA agents booked cabs to heathrow for them. But remember this was because they couldnt get trains to LHR at this time of the night

So I'm guessing you should be fine with the train ticket. reimbursement. Whether youll be allowed 1st class or not is another. If I were you. I would take a screenshot of standard class fare and as for that to be reimbursed if you're not allowed FIrst.

I've previously taken a train down to kings cross an LHR when my flight was cancelled and I was reimbursed promptly
