I don’t think you can say “most” and “categorically” in the same sentence but yes; the gist of what you are saying is true for those who are neither US citizens nor lawful permanent residents.

They mention the book date being September 2019. The way I read the book with confidence voucher eligibility is if flights are booked after March 2020. Or is FTV different to travel with confidence?

Taken from BA.com this evening:


Cancelling your booking

If you decide you no longer want to travel, you can cancel your booking and we’ll give you a voucher to the same value for a future booking (applies to bookings made from 3 March until 31 August 2020 for journeys that are due to have been completed by 30 April 2021).

For bookings made prior to 3 March FTV is available where travel is by end of August.

Aaah ok, thanks for clarifying. I'm stuck in the bookings made prior to 3 March where travel is after August camp.

Again thank you for your helpful replies. Just one last question. Would the voucher still cover the return journey as it’s beginning of September. All travel is on one booking.

yes your whole booking is eligible for a FTV as long as the trip starts before end of August. See this question on ba.com:

My outbound flight leaves up to 31 August 2020 but my return flight is after 31 August 2020, am I eligible for a voucher?

Yes, so long as you’ve started your journey with us by 31 August 2020.
