Good evening. I have just bought one of those super cheap first class tickets that BA currently have on offer to the US via regional/Eu start points, in this case ex Inverness. I have two questions, firstly as I live in london is it a safe bet that the aeroplane coming down to london to kick off my booking will be the same one coming up before hand in the morning (so I can just jump on that as a positioning flight from london rather than going up to Inverness the previous day) - there is barely 40 minutes turnaround and I wouldn’t want BA to have a different aeroplane already up there, so if my inbound to Inverness was late I’d miss the flight back down (!) and on to the US)...

Secondly when I return are BA still hot on people with an onward flight somewhere ditching it and stopping at london on the inbound leg? This is inevitably a bit of a points run...!

And as a matter of interest why do they care if we don’t do the last leg on a cheap ticket surely they save the fuel of an absent passenger’s weight?!

thanks in advance!
