They allow existing avios bookings to be changed for departures up to 1st of August.
There is no need for Reward Seat availability.

They changed my booking from end of June to end of July, without any issues.

The general advice - which is the main Rebooking thread to be found via the BA COVID-19 Dashboard - is to wait until the last moment to see if youi flights are cancelled, thus enabling a full cash refund. It's not likely to be cancelled in the final 24 hours before departure, however, so that's the deadline in a way. If you booked via BA directly, added your cellphone and email address, you should get a notification automatically but it's worth a daily look on Manage My Booking since some people don't seem to get these notifications. You won't get a refund on seating costs if you cancel while the flights are running, so only look to do that if you are at the deadline. You would get the taxes back, and it's possible your ticket has some flexibility on refunds, it may say something about that in Manage My Booking. I hope you are able to sort something out.

Hi,

I have a booking AGP-LHR-NCL on 14/06 coming back on 20/04. The flight numbers are BA 413, BA 1336, BA 1327 and BA 454.

I think BA 1336 and BA 1327 are both cancelled but they show as normal in my MMB.

Are they indeed canceled? If so can I get my money back?.

Thanks.

Flights may be zeroed at the moment but until you get a cancellation notice ( by e-mail, phone, or when you log in to MMB ), you wouldn't able to get a refund.
To avoid overcrowding at hotlines at the same moment, BA is gradually sending cancellation notices to each passenger.

And, yes all LHR-NCL flights are zeroed for June so you should receive a cancellation notice soon.

Thanks very much.

I have a booking from OSL via LHR to SIN on BA11 in middle of June. Are all the BA11 flights cancelled until end of May? I know that nobody can be sure, but what is the chance of BA11 being cancelled in June also? If BA cancel BA11 and moves us to BA15, would I still be able to cancel the ticket for a full refund?

If BA11 is not cancelled but I still cancel the ticket. Except from taxes, would I still get back the Avios I used to upgrade from C to F?

if there is a 120 minute or greater schedule change from point of origin to the point of destination then you can cancel for a full refund under the standard guidelines. In terms of whether BA11 will be cancelled in June who knows.

If you take the voucher then you won't lose anything - everything will be on the voucher including the avios for the UuA.

If you cancel then you will get back a small amount of taxes & fees. The UuA itself should be refunded, albeit I think you have to pay a Ł35 fee.

Under the circumstances where your flight isn't cancelled I think either the rebook or voucher options under book with confidence are far more preferable than just cancelling.

Hi,

I contacted BA through twitter and they have canceled my flights and process my refund.

Thanks

the taxes are $1200+ per person. The total fare was $7800 for 2. So getting $2400 back is better than nothing. So I’d end up eating the $500+ that I paid for seat selection?

I’d love to return to Europe, but my husband isn’t that keen on traveling, only likes to cruise and this COVID-19 has really made him wary of making any advance plans. I think the vouchers have a 1 year expiry date and there is no way we would plan another cruise within that time. I’ve already lost 2 cruises to COVID-19... just hoping my cruise to Australia/New Zealand in November still sails.

Just a reminder that it won't make any difference if you cancel your flight now or if you cancel it 3-4 days before the flight date. If I were you, I would have waited for a cancellation notice as it's likely that LHR-LAX would not operate x3 daily in June. If one of your flights are canceled, you would be entitled to a full refund.

The taxes are definitely not $1200 per person. The carrier surcharge will be most of that taxes/fees/charges amount, and the carrier surcharge is not refunded. If I look at an example of a LAX-BCN return in J the total taxes/fees/charges is $1448 per person. Of that only about $111 is taxes and fees which would be refunded.

As you note, you wouldn't get back the seat selection fees either.

I think you are best of just waiting for a cancellation - it is highly likely at least one flight in your booking will be cancelled at some point - and once that happens you can get a full refund.

Thank you for the reply. I guess since BA11 and BA15 are so close, I would not get the money back anyway if they move me to BA15. My travel insurance will pay me back all the money, but I need to cancel BA ticket first and get back as much money as possible before insurance pays the rest. Good to know I can claim back the Avios also And a voucher is not counted as «money» so I rather claim from insurance instead of taking a voucher.

Your OSL-LHR flights may also be canceled.

Thank you so much for all of your insight!! I will just wait until the last moment!!!

I have a ticket, LHR-NCE departing last week of May, MRS-LHR departing mid June. It would connect on TATL SFO-LHR, on separate UA ticket. These tickets were booked in August.

UA hasn't canceled the TATL ticket, just changed it.

Meanwhile BA has canceled the LHR-NCE flight but not the return MRS-LHR. Oddly, when you search the legs individually, there is an LHR-NCE ticket, earlier in the day but there are no flights for MRS-LHR.

In any event, I will have to cancel the whole itinerary.

The Schengen entry-ban is expected to be extended to 15 May, meaning no entry for Americans. Are UK citizens allowed to enter Schengen or more likely citizens of Schengen states residing in the UK?

They may be going month to month but Macron supposedly said entry ban to France may have to go until September. And even that sounds optimistic.

There can't be much passenger traffic between UK and France now nor will there likely to be in the next two months?
