Indeed four days later, I checked and they are remaining at LHR. I am pleased as really I would have been surprised if LGW will be opening before the summer holidays if then.

My LHR-SEA-LHR mid-May is zero'd out on EF, but still ticketed and running according to BA.

The BA280/281 rotation to LAX has been zeroed out until Monday May 17th, but nothing has been cancelled yet in May. Due to the level of cancellations across the network through to the end of May, I expect BA are moving through the dates triggering cancellations to avoid a high volume of calls hitting their call centres all at once.

Cancellation emails for LUX flights over the late May bank holiday received this morning. Flights were zeroed out until 7 June about a week ago.

BA15 LHR-SIN cancelled on 17th May. Have been rebooked onto BA11 on 18th but will take this opportunity to get a refund. Shame, it was a 50% Avios booking but I cant see Singapore letting us in before October even if we feel safe enough to travel.

Got my cancellation email for BA280 and BA281 (LHR-LAX-LHR) for the 4th and 12th May. Both flights were booked during the 50% Avios promotion so I'm unable to change the dates on the MMB

Have to say their strategy is working. I had a LHR-CDG flight for mid May cancelled on Monday, I called in early on Tuesday evening, only 10 minute wait to talk to agent. Avios redeposited immediately and taxes refunded to my bank this morning.

Went almost to the day of the 1 year validity, no additional Avios (booked in 50% sale).
Very happy.
