No email for me
Ironically, it's the one event I would really like to have gone to.

Must say I am once again disappointed with BA, who seem to just be turning everything Exec Club related into this Elitist and uber - exclusive club, seems the only way they seem to join loyalty now is by £, as demonstrated last time in 2011 by the fact anyone who had a passion for the airline could go- regardless of status.

I am sorry. It was a bit of sunday evening fun, for me anyway. I haven't received anything yet. If and when I do I will report it on here though.

Anyway, hopefully they should be coming out this week.

Ha Ha, did think it sounded a bit cocky! It only seems to be about 5 of us on here asking about tickets and so knowing how generous BA are my bet is they might PM us all on here and offer us tickets 😉.... Perhaps a bit optimistic!?

Well if you think they're going to have a VIP Flyertalk section, then I'm in.

What time will the limo be arriving at my house?

Not sure yet, waiting on BA to send me out details of when they will send a fully paid for one out to collect me.

It's one of the few ones I would actually have been able to go to (flying to LHR on 6 Jun, and further on the next morning).

[By Invitation Only] BA Open Day returns this summer 6th June

Another blue member here who would be interested in this. I think the £88 HBO same day return from GLA would be quite good value if I were to get a ticket.

I'd like an invite too please!

Could we set up a FlyerTalk stall? We could have F pyjamas, C-W-S's black mug and some swimwear from HNL on display.

For the live entertainment how about re-enactments' from the DYKWIA thread?

So there is still hope for us all...... good luck ^

Yes the site is still down and no invite for me but still want to go!

BA please include me!!!! ^

If this does go ahead, should we all meet up after for a drink at one of the pubs dotted around the parameter. I hear the pub Green Man is good :-:

The site is back up. I still can't register though. I wonder if anyone on here will actually get an invitation today
