11 Oct 18 Severe glitch prevents booking of flights see post #3318

Airports served by oneworld or BA partners that are not recognised on the Avios redemption search
AYQ, HID, KWL, RMQ, FTE, DAD, TSV

3 Jun 18 ... "Print Boarding Pass" generates a blank field where the BP should be! Clicking "Print" generates, predictably, a blank sheet of paper!
Mac/Safari (EDIT, 3 Jun: Solution is to "Email BP", which initially shows blank as well, but the email contains the full BP.) Same again on 3 Sep 18, and same fix!

27 Nov ... Can not search for a flight on the updated BA.com website interface , after inputting all informations ( destinations , paxs and dates etc) it pretended to load and then just reverts back to the home page with all fields now cleared. iMac/Safari

Claiming missing avios pages not working [Link]

22 Sep 16, see Post 2005. Hotel Avios giving different results depending on which page you view. Mac/Safari.

6 October 16 Cannot pay by paypal when doing redemptions

.May 18. Login to BAEC generates error message (Mac/Safari) although works on 2nd attempt. Noted at >>> https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...l#post29777401

Confirmed, receiving the same error all day, trying to book NCL-LHR-MIA for next week.

Is this error only for US destinations? I have no idea, but I have been trying all day with this same error (not local pc issue defiantly BA server problem).

PS: Slightly out of context, but BA is a rolling disaster recently, what in the name of heaven is going on?

& while I’m in rant mode. Any FA's from BA reading, your colleagues outright rudeness to the Qatar crew on the LHR-NCL run yesterday was not pleasant to watch for anyone. This level of Professionalism does you no credit at all.

Looks like it's for everywhere. Flight + Hotel prices up ok and my BAEC account works ok too but not flights on their own.

Added GMP to the list of airports not recognised by Avios search, even though JL flies there from HND.

I can book via the App and online for GOT-LHR .. LHR-TXL separately.. also cannot book to the USA or to th Far East.. I receive the same "error" as everyone else.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the App.. changed differed URL's.
Is this because of the going strike?

It no longer gives me this error for flights out of Orlando, however it's giving me limited trip options and quoting $3200 for r/t in economy... I think it's still broken.

I guess I have to add my troubles to the stack.

Trying to book Avios trip DFW-CVG using AA on BA website as I have done many times before. Get message stating
"Error
British Airways does not have traffic rights to operate directly between these two cities."
and I am taken to a page where I can start my trip search again.

Same happens when just trying to book and purchase with money.

Ha!

Get my phone out and I am able to book with either Avios or money using the app.
