LOL

Seems BA can't make their mind up. Seems my return leg next week is now reverted back to a 767!!!

Fingers crossed

From all of the routes, what is the cheapest route on a BA767? One for CE and another for ET.

I have done FRA-LHR return for £130ish, on the 767 (not intentially). For CE it was £340 / €370 but at the moment keeps coming in at over £400 on BA.com now.

We’re on BA780 to ARN in December - currently showing as 2x2 seating in MMB. Seems this route might be going to A32x?

According to the arrivals/retirements tracker here: BA Fleet : New aircraft arrivals and retirements master tracker this December will see the very final 767 leave the fleet so it seems a fair bet it will indeed be an A32x by that point, as will most/all of the other routes. I know BA is desperately short of airframes at the moment (hence Titan et al) so I don't know if that could change - perhaps someone more expert could comment on that?

(I'd guess not, I suspect it's probably easier to wet lease a few more than try to extend the service life of the 767s?)

LHR-GLA can be cheap for ET if you pick the right day. I did a day trip to GLA from LHR, up on A320 and back on 767. I booked ET the paid around £59-£69 to upgrade to CE (Each Way).

Steward on FRA-LHR 767 today said that the first two retirements are coming in June/July, and that the route is currently slated to go all A321 (I think it’s mostly A319 with a single 767 each way per day)

He said that he will miss the 767s.

Last BA flight on a 767?

Does anyone find a BA 767 flight after October 27th?
The last flight I found was LCA-LHR, BA 663, scheduled to land at LHR 10:35pm.

Just jumping on this thread! I'll be flying LHR to either GLA or EDI on 15/16/17 Oct.

Is someone able to tell me where I can find out if a 767 will be on one of these routes? Thank you

A flight availability search on ExpertFlyer would show this. At the moment the BA1434 LHR-EDI is scheduled to be a 767 on all 3 days you mention. I can see nothing to GLA served by a 767 on those dates.

As a free alternative, you could also use ITA Matrix and specify the aircraft type, something like this should work:

As well as the method shown by BertieBadger above, I'll just add that to the end of September looks like the 767 is on MAD, AMS, ARN, FRA, EDI, FCO, LCA, and ATH. During the last week of October the remaining 767 routes are dropped apart from LCA. From 6 November onwards it is just LCA, and the last 767 flights in the system currently is the LCA rotation on Sunday 25 November.

More information here Farewell 767s. Thanks for the memories

MAD 456/7 is still definitely a 767 at the moment (I am booked on in a couple of weeks)

One thing I did notice - looks like SeatGuru may have got ahead of themselves and removed the relevant seatmap for it. You can get a 767 map up, but it's domestic config only.
