If it were me, I would cancel the BA ticket, get a refund, and set about finding the best (or least worst) option. At the moment, I think things are going to get worse before they get better in October. Good luck.
When I originally changed to VS that was because I was getting the VS business product; far superior to BA short haul. If Elal was an option I would've jumped at it but they've been sold out for about a month. That's why I booked BA in the first place.
The BA ticket is a reward ticket so I'm not to sure if there is any value in cancelling it. I think I'm better off trying to find any plausible rebooking option
