Anticipating issues with the OTA booking due to cancellations
My LHR JFK flight in CW is zeroed out in February. Its a part of a DME LHR JFK DFW itinerary. They havent cancelled it yet but they will. As the ticket was booked through Arangrant it will be a nightmare dealing with the changes. I am also quite sure the JFK DFW ticketed as a BA codeshare on AA flight will be cancelled also but AA doesnt do those changes until the last week of the prior month so end of January. Wonder if BA would be willing to take over the ticket so I can communicate with them instead of the agency. Likely no but have a faint unreasonable hope.

February 2021 flight cancellations and operational changes
Sadly another month, another thread.
My BA 790 LHR GOT on Feb 10 2021 has been cancelled.
As this was a B2B to eventually get us to OGG, booked with AA, I fully expect the return on the same day (BA 791?) to be cancelled and 'bang' there goes the entire run. A shame but unsurprising.
Good luck to all those affected in the rest of the month.

Happily, my London to Gothenburg flight (BA792) in February has been cancelled and I can get a refund.
This was the positioning flight for an aborted ex-EU trip to Hawaii, currently also in the process of being refunded.

Snap, as you will no doubt have expected, given we were tracking each other .

LHR-DUS down from 6 to 1 a day all the way through to 10 February.
Couldn't have picked a worse date: Was meant to fly LHR-DUS on 10 February (which is now cancelled) before flying back DUS-LHR-Americas on 11 February (not cancelled yet). I'm sure it's just a matter of time though...

Received cancellation emails today for several JFK/LHR roundtrips in February which had been zeroed out for a few days. I checked EF and looks like the schedule is down to 2 flights per day through end of Feb. Starting Mar 1 it's back to 6 flights per day for sale (for now...)
