Yes, a route change mistake. You are referring to the original Madrid night stopper flight. It left LCY at 18.40 for Madrid, night stopped and returned to LCY in the morning. They changed this to a twice daily non night stopping service and the loads were poor so they axed the route. Perhaps consider bringing back the night stopping flight.

Sorry Boys, but I am missing something here. I cannot see any mention of LCY - JMK on Expertflyer or BA.com. OP, I thought from the way that you posted this, you had done this JMK - LCY recently?

It’s only operated June to September.
CJ MAN-JMK on Saturdays has a longer season.

It's not daily, and it is seasonal. I think it'll end in early September, and then it'll restart in mid-June. I do know that next summer's have now been loaded, although not all of the season is yet bookable of course.

Very pleased that one of my upcoming flights seems to have been switched from an E170 at the time of booking to an E190. Very strangely, when I noticed it, seats 1A/B and 2C/D were still available, but some of rows 3 and 4 have been taken. Fingers crossed it doesn't get switched back to the E170.

This was curious enough for me to have a look: EF is indeed not showing the LCY flights on availability displays in August and the very beginning of September. They are still listed in the timetables section, and an attempt to dummy book random dates on ba.com showed flights on dates that EF doesn't show. The last few of the season do show, though. So very curious indeed.

On another test, ITA is having no difficulties with these flights.
It's ITA that has to manage its workload as it's trying to compute unmanageable numbers of combinations. In comparison, EF ought to be relatively simple to run, as it's just a portal to information.

EF is supposed to report perfectly whatever the GDS shows, which is why this is very curious.
