I did see that BOD is decreasing from 10 to 9 flights per week, however It looks that it’ll be 7 weekly for most of the season.
The flight times are now pretty bad too, only 1 flight a week which isn’t an early morning departure, makes a city break harder.

I'm excited to see where the A350 will be deployed next summer. Really hope this becomes apparent soon, especially if there is a sale in January.

So it seems we'll see new routes to Abadan (Iran), Antalya, Corfu, Dublin and Saint Lucia. This to me doesn't make sense, especially Abadan and Saint Lucia. Saint Lucia is already served by BA while Abadan is a small airport in Iran that will no way get a direct flight to London. It may be ADB instead which is Izmir. Dublin is served 6 daily by EI so I don't see why would BA add more flights on the same route.

Given the sanctions and BA not even willing to make Tehran work, it would be amazing if they decided to fly to some small airport in Iran no-one has ever heard of.
