AA0123 DFW HNL has had a time change from 8:30 to 9:50. Was informed last Sunday by BAH my flight BA1972 i.e. operated by AA, AA0123 has now been cancelled. The new AA0123 flight is bookable on BA, no sign of the BA codeshare. I want to keep the BA codeshare to qualify for double tier points.
How long does it take on average for the BA codeshare to appear?

Outside of this I’d be amazed if some of the big FT users weren’t known to BA staff in head office departments… but then some posters could very easily be identified from what they post and therefore clearly don’t mind, while others take care to prevent that possibility and would likely be aggrieved if they were tracked.

The new Comarch loyalty system does contain various fields into which social media and forum handles are designed to be entered, though I am reliably informed that BA/AGL have chosen not to use these yet.

This is more out of curiosity. Was idly looking out if a window at LCY this afternoon at a deserted apron and noticed the aircraft type markings on the tarmac showed the nosewheel parking position for an A319 and A320 type. But the A319 and A320 are not certified for LCY and not ever likely to be - my understanding is they just cannot operate with any sort of decent payload or range so no airline would even try and get them certified.
So wondering why the apron for each gate has them marked out?
