I should have said I was alerted to this by the excellent @LondonAirTravel on Twitter.
I dosagree, the quote in the PR piece above states change or delay...

as I understand it, it is booked by 16 March, not flown by.

Head For Points has just released an article where he feels that BA aren’t doing enough even with this policy to maintain bookings, noting that although IATA have requested usual slot rules are suspended this hasn’t happened so BA need to continue to use their slots whilst LH grounds aircraft and cancels 25% of its flights, CX cancels 75% of their flights. He points that this may end FlyBe and Norwegian and BA may gain in the long run from this.
