February 2021 flight cancellations and operational changes

As BA have started to adjust their 10 January - 28 February long-haul schedules at the moment with some zeroing on several routes at the moment, I am opening this thread to discuss the changes made for February 2021 operations and changes/cancellations.

At the moment ( about 26 Nov 12:00 GMT ), the zeroing process is still going on and we should have an overview of the operating long-haul routes in the upcoming days.
For short-haul, there is no sign of update for the moment.

Gosh. It looks like we will be hitting more than 12 months of these threads. Let’s hope it’s not more than 18 months. How sad.

Roll on Summer 21

As I mentioned in the Jan ‘21 cancellation thread, SAN has hit the fan so to speak through the end of Feb.

Looks like LHR-BGI is still going - not sure how viable it will be for us though given the entry restrictions at present...

The restrictions are the same as have been for a while now and pretty simple really coming from Europe. Get a PCR test three days before you fly and another one the day after you land. Assuming you pass the second test you are only inconvenienced with two nights of restriction in your hotel.

Plenty of full planes from BA and VS so I would think many of the scheduled flights in dec/jan/feb will go in what is their peak season.
