I purchased am AONE directly from BA- i called them ahead of my arrival and they were fantatstic. Speak with Crsytal on + 230 202 8000

Alternatively, email them on [email protected]

interestingly, have done my initial flight, MRU-LHR, i thne continue RTW to US, Asia, Australi, then to SA, and oddly, threw in JNB-LHR-MRU in as well to get me to finish in MRU...."


So it would appear that they allowed a second visit to LHR (in transit). Of course, this was before the BA/Comair MRU-JNB was announced, currently to begin at least once a week from Nov 16, 06. Who knows (probably not BA!) if they'll allow the LHR in transit for the other six days of the week.
