What is going on ?
Our 3 Oct BA cancelled too. Been rerouted same date 0:35 hrs via Doha with Qatar then BA. Not ideal by any means but should qualify to claim EU/UK 261 £520 as not arriving within 4 hours of original arrival. Suggested some other routings to BA agent during 90 minute call at midnight ( we're in Seoul) but it was that or a refund. Too tired, too late to argue much and need to leave China on 3 Oct as relying on 72 hour visa transit rule.
