I tend to use the BA 'Add to calendar' function and then Flighty picks up the flights automatically from my calendar entries. Actually, I add all flights from all airlines into my calendar and then all my flights appear in Flighty. I've not had a problem using this approach but it can take a few minutes to a few hours for Flighty to parse the calendar. I'm not sure if there's a way to force that.
lol.

The problem with calendar is that flights go in, but then don’t get changed/updated, so i end up with multiple / wrong entries cluttering up an already busy diary. I might try to go via trip it, which was usually pretty good at the import - but would be good if BA e-ticket emails worked (as they have all the details). Also,, flighty has no concept of PNR? Shouldn’t be difficult to add this field and allow grouping by it? Feature Request

edit:
We received your email but could not detect enough of the mandatory information to import any flights. This is error msg - and i have no idea what info they think is missing from the BA email?
