Hello All,

BA has been cancelling a lot of flights on the 787-900 into EWR in the last week. I will be taking one of these flights in a few weeks. In the event of another cancellation, there are few OW flights into EWR. Can BA require us to re-route into JFK? If so, would they provide compensation to get back to EWR or would we be on our own (for those who don't fly there, those 2 airports are 35-40 miles apart, depending upon the route, but can take 2 hours to get to depending on the time of day).

If that's what we are offered are we free to refuse? If we do refuse are we entitled to compensation?

Is there any likelihood that BA would offer a United flight even though it's not OW? Thanks!
