Given that I think PHX is not one of the airports available for EU-US travel, you are almost certainly right.
Looking forward to going back to PHX once this covid situation is better ( but will be odd not on a 747-400)

I now have noticed that all the Sat flights in Sep and Oct have gone to 0 availability so I think that the route has been scratched for the time being.

UPDATE
I've just had the mail from BA cancelling the flights. Good to see that they did not mess about - I'm not going near there until this nonsense calms.

BA Holidays return flight from Boston to LHR BA212 in September now operating as A350 so downgraded from F to J. Was an A380 I think. No mention of a reduction in price, not planning to go anyway but that doesn’t seem right.

). Best place to ask is this thread: The 2020 BA compensation thread: Your guide to Regulation EC261/2004

I've had the flights in a BAH booking cancelled that I previously had to take 3 passengers off and move them to another PNR (and paid a £75, of which these flights have also been cancelled) amendment fee to do so. BAH are saying that the amendment fee isn't refundable. Is this right?

there are arguments either way about whether that is strictly in line with EC261 so if you do wish to dispute I would expect you’ll have to put in some effort for any chance of success.
