BA i want you back i am sorry!
BA i would like to apologise! I have recently been taking you for granted and using QR behind your back. Life really hasn't been the same without you. From having to check in a backpack because my total carry on was slightly more than 7kg to now sitting in DOH waiting for a delay of 5hr and 45mins. I would like to let you know that i have broken things off with QR and will never do that to you again. I love you and i miss you x
PS will you take me from NBO-LHR in Jan? x |
It is a shocking hand baggage allowance granted. See how I get on with them today ex HEL!
|
Decent (IMO slightly too much!) hand luggage allowance on BA really strikes me every time I fly QF which also have an excessively tight 7 kg limit.
Particularly noticeable when I have just arrived on a BA flight to SYD and then transfer onto QF domestic and do some stupid, public baggage reshuffle to avoid being pinged at the gate and terribly curtly told that I was lucky to be allowed to check an extra bag free (never mind the fact I had a spare baggage allowance). |
Good luck if you don't think this happens on all airlines. BA had a 7 hour delay on Nairobi only a couple of weeks ago.

€600 to my bank account (possibly after a bit of convincing) would make the delay slightly sweeter though

From London? I wouldn't mind that! seeing as i live 15 mins from LHR and there would be 600 Euro Compensation with it too!

You flew from BKK-DOH-NBO.
Is the BA routing, via LHR and an overnight stop, a better option for you? M |

That would all depend on the cause of the delay
On BA Source, all notable reported Nairobi delays this year appear to have been technical. |

So then the 5h delay is pretty inconsequential overall.
M All he/she has said is that they have a 5 hour delay. So, I don't see how your assertion that "the 5h delay is pretty inconsequential overall" comes into play? |

Sidebar, only cuz I'm thinking about it after reading this. Post Br-exit, will the EU261 rules still apply to BA ex-UK?
If there’s no deal, the EU (Withdrawal) Act will bring EU261 into domestic law as retained direct EU legislation - so yes.... but in the short-term, that Act also gives Ministers the ability to fix deficiencies in retained law, defined as including revoking what Ministers consider to be inappropriate or redundant EU references. I don’t know what plans are in relation to this instrument (but they might reduce the scope from EU airlines to British airlines, for example). In the longer-term, then this sort of thing becomes the normal responsibility of domestic legislators. |
