Sorry guys, I know my post doesn't concern Nov cancellations, just curious if some light can be shed on possible MEX cancellations.
I doubt even BA knows if these flights will operate in 2021. Thankfully they have become far more dynamic and responsive to demand than they’ve been before.

Don't jinx it. It started up end of September having not run since March, except for a one off date in July. No entry restrictions into Mexico and resorts operating again at the beaches. Could be a popular choice

Anyone here flying from LHR-YVR on 1st November (BA85)? It seems like it's the first time this flight has run since March. I spoke to the executive club team last night when trying to book my partner onto the same flight but was unable to so and automatically assumed that it was pending cancellation. However, I was told that flight is booked up until December 1st and at the moment is running as normal.

LHR-YVR will be cancelled for November sometime in the next couple of days. Best of luck with alternate arrangements.

Urgh I sure hope not but have a feeling its likely. Have you seen anything or just speculating? I'm actually surprised the flight is full considering Canada is only letting workers, PR's and citizens in at the moment.

The availability is 0 seats across all classes... which means it is literally hours away from being officially cancelled.

Looks like I will be sampling the Air Canada business offering for the first time then!

I’ve noticed the same for my AUS flights so I think the great November purge is nearly upon us.

My early November Turin flights were cancelled and moved, making the related BRU connections - untouched at this time - totally impossible. For the outbound, I've been moved to the TRN flight departing 7am, and that means I have to fly to LHR the day before and overnight there. I don't know if BA would agree to pay for the hotel even if they are "forcing" me to do a overnight...

I think I will wait a couple of days to see what happens with the BRU flights and then decide what to do and what to ask.

Update: unfortunately the inbound is so screwed up that the likely outcome will be a full cancellation & refund...

My LHR - BSL flight on 9th has had a time change and isn't useful to me any more. When they were previously cancelled, I could change the date and time online. Now, as they decided to put me on a flight 7 hours earlier, the only option I have online is to accept it. I have to ring to do anything else. Irritating.

I'm going to just wait and see if they change their minds and cancel it completely.

im doing a LAX-LHR at the end of Nov. I did see that the late evening departure was showing as an A380 and as I’ve never flown in one, I was tempted to take that option, but the earlier flight works better for my schedule and I thought there was no chance of the 380 operating, so I stuck with the early 77W option. I see from EF that the late flight is now showing as a 789.

It it remains to be seen if they cancel one of those flights as they did for September and October. They usually left the 777 service in place.

Received notification of changes today BA 1403 MAN-LHR @1700 on 10/11/20 changed to 1550 and aircraft LHR-JNB changed from A380 to 777! Might all be academic anyway...need to see if travel restrictions into SA change. If not have to find somewhere else to go :-)

Anyone know when BA are planning on cancelling domestic LHR-EDI or JER-LHR flights for the 8th NOV , really don't want to go on them! and I would prefer my cash back rather than a poxy voucher!

My 5th Nov MAN-LHR and 8th Nov LHR-MAN was cancelled today. You get an email about seat changes first (I assumed aircraft change) but it was a prelude to a cancellation in MMB.

Yes, after enjoying reasonable connection options from/to MAN during September/October, they’ve messed with the schedule for November which again substantially reduces the ability to connect back to MAN. I’ve had several such changes and accordingly this has resulted in cash refunds and that cash going back to easyJet and Ryanair instead of BA.
