I wouldn't imagine so - I suspect the red tape for large slow-changing companies would be epic.

My key requirement for a TA is that they are one of those who are able to use BA upgrade vouchers to put the upgraded itinerary into revenue classes. Partner with one of them and I am yours!

Just a note to say that exporting your flight data is now available - sign into the web app, go to settings and Export data.
Data is in OpenFlights CSV format.
Cheers,
Chris

Can I just say how much I miss My Flights. This week I've had a seat change and a flight cancellation that would have been so much easier to deal with if it were still around (my flights are booked through my CTA, so I don't even have the choice to go through anyone else).
Everything else on the market sucks (even the one my employer owns).

Please Propeller. Please? Hopefully Daniel K is considering it. As I said before, if Propeller were to sign up they would get all my bookings, be they BA or non BA, cash or GUF. I currently only use them for BA GUF.

Yeah having his technology would definitely be a good reason to use a specific TA.

I really miss MyFlights, as I was reminded when checking in for a flight to find that the E90 had been changed to an E70, scuppering my lovely 2D seat assignment...
The only upside was that it did prompt me to log in and download my flight data, just a reminder to others (who are as tardy as me) that you should do this before 30 June 2018.
Any advice on my best alternative, particularly for changes to schedule, seat and/or equipment? I have an EF premium subscription, but entering the details for equipment and schedule changes is tedious across so many flights. Will Tripit Pro give alerts reliably for these changes? I currently just use the free version, mainly to keep a list of my upcoming flights in one place. Any recommendations or other suggestions gratefully considered. BA is my most frequent carrier, but also fly a bunch of others including LCCs (a fair amount of U2).

But with my ticketing patterns (a lot of CX/KA)
The only at-risk swap is a long-haul equipment for a short-haul flight at ticketing being swapped to regional. They're a relatively small subset of what I redeem/ticket.
I isolate all of those sectors and set up EF waitlists against them.
I thought not but happy to be proven wrong.
Can U2 be captured in Myflights? Are they Amadeus or?
