BA 1452 LHR-EDI on 14/9 now cancelled, was last leg for a weekend in Madrid. Quite happy with this will go for a refund.
Now just waiting for EDI-LGW-CUN return on 30/9 to be cancelled, hopefully. The Grand at the Moon Palace can wait until another time. That would be all travel for this year gone.
Nashville in May and Berlin in March were previous casualties.

I don’t know who might have the skill to populate a Wiki, but we had one for July and August.
Is there anyone there who could start to populate one for September? ... accepting that clearly BA are juggling that month intensely!

+442032500145 and asked for a refund including seat selection and was told 7-10 days. His refund came through this morning (25th) so quite impressed. No quibbles whatsoever.

Nashville in May and Berlin in March were previous casualties.Offered double points or refund to card on cancelling booking. Took the refund not needing the Avios, how many First seats are going to be available in the future?. Plus this year’s 241 gone for a burton with all the refunds.

BA had scheduled 6 weekly flights (always seemed optimistic to me) from LGW-BGI in September but 3 of these were cancelled overnight including my outbound. The flights kept in the schedule are:
LGW-BGI Sat/Tue/Thu
BGI-LGW Sun/Wed/Fri
Barbados is currently testing on arrival and BA are already running 2x weekly services so I'm relatively hopeful that - once rebooked onto a running flight - I might actually get to go on holiday abroad this year! This morning's flight cancellation email had the distinction of being my 20th booking cancelled in 2020 (work and leisure combined).

LGW-ANU (Outbound) on the 7th Sept has now been cancelled, Inbound flight of that return (11th Sept) still showing as operating. Google flights and the BA website do show other options that day, but the BA website and App are not offering a rebooking option via MMB and directing enquiries to the call centre which is not currently able to take calls due to a large volume of enquiries...

I was interested to read the comment in the email .... ...
We will be in contact with you to discuss your options. If you'd like to contact us in the meantime, please call:
We'll see how that works, but at least it avoids trying to call in the midst of the Spanish scenario.
This curiously suits us well, as getting a pre-arrival Covid PCR test was virtually impossible to achieve. So, a £5.5k refund, please, and we will now try to get to MLA instead!

Inbound flight ANU.LGW 11th Sept cancelled now as well. Very sensible to take the refund. Its a work trip I'm trying to make so I'm going to try another route but with LIAT currently in a mess, and entry from the US difficult/restricted the options are somewhat limited.

Wiki updated (thanks, Tobias-UK)
Ha, we were 'lucky' with our dates ... ANU down to twice weekly, and we had picked the non-flying days.!

No this isn't correct. The worst part of the hurricane season is mid September / early October, this is when the hurricanes tend to be strongest. I have lived in the Caribbean for many years.

Just checking with some of you who will know better than me. Had a return flight booked last December for this September LCA-LHR-BOS on 23rd returning 30th BOS-LHR-LCA. Booked through AA but 3 of the 4 flights were on BA metal. Various changes have happened since booking including the only AA flight from BOS-LHR being changed to BA after they wanted to reroute us via JFK on an additional leg. Then that flight (BA212 was changed from an A380 to A350 - no problem with that). Last week our LHR-BOS leg (BA239) disappeared from MMB. I assume that this is one of the daily flights to BOS dropped for September as I can’t see it on the schedules.
I assume that this means I can now cancel and refund the trip by I’m also wondering if our booking will be updated nearer the time as at the moment there is no replacement showing in MMB or in AA.

After 4 days of ringing BA off and on, I was just able to get through. 39 minutes of waiting to be get connected and then just 2 minutes to confirm my refund. I was quoted 3 - 15 days for the refund to be returned to my AMEX. Pretty good so far. Hopefully, my girls getaway to Greece will happen in 2021.

If it's an AA booking, with a 001 ticket number, then it's AA's policies that apply, rather than BA. I know AA have a similar set of policies to BA but ultimately this is one for the AA forum.
