The BA staff on phone been very good. Have to decided what to do by late afternoon as any changes need to made more than 24 hrs before first flight.
Unfortunately looking more likely my son will not make the flight.
Posting update for others who may find themselves in same situation - but hopefully not. Year of planning undone by fog!
Someone will be along to correct me if I am wrong. I know that the voucher holder can use the 241 to effectively get a half-price Avios ticket. So if the voucher holder can do that, then they would save Avios (and maybe your some son’s fees and taxes on the cancelled part would be refunded, less a fee of course). Hope that makes sense?
