Nope. To be fair, I have not asked anyway because it is just a later same day flight.
I do need to find out because my wife and son were moved to Monday morning's LCY flight and they are overnighting at FRA (separate bookings). My wife suspects what CWS wrote above about being proactive. I'll sort the details with BA later. If not, I'll let her sort them out

This kind of situation brings home to me how good FT can be as a source of useful advice. I flew out with my family on Saturday morning from LHR but having read before on FT (especially from the fabulous ATC and Tower people who post) about how departures can leave the stand and then go and hide in a remote corner of LHR waiting for a slot, I endured that we packed sandwiches and bought drinks at the airport just in case. In the end we left the gate dead on time and then sat somewhere remote for an hour - but we were totally unstressed as the captain explained the weather situation and we had food. This preparation and knowledge was all due to the great advice provided here.
Plus the CSM and all the crew were top class throughout which makes a huge difference in any delay.

Is that the one that's now delayed over an hour. Getting back to LCY is much more convenient for me than LHR. But doubtless I'll survive.

I ended up on Aer Lingus via Dublin - so a bit of inconvenience, and I missed my Sunday stroll in the park with the dog. I don’t feel overly guilty about the €125 claim on this occasion....
