LHR-BWI-LHR route now cancelled through to the beginning of July, and then daily excl. Thursday/Sundays.
(Presumably since they've now booked us into IAD we can cancel or rebook - although the dates for the possible rebooked flights are 2x the price... .).

LHR-OLB return cancelled for May half term on an expiring 241.
Rebooked for late August... fingers crossed.
If we end up taking a voucher for a moved booking, does the 241 still end up being preserved until 2023 etc?

Our flights to SAN and back 3rd to 14th May have just been cancelled. Like DrGee above this was a rebooking from May 2020, not sure when we will get to go there. Also it was an avios 2 for 1 booking, our second that has been cancelled this year, not sure when we will get to spend them.

My rebooked (from April-May to late May-June) LGW-ACE flights moved to LHR which suits me, return moved a day later.
The original schedule had flights most days and I'd booked Saturday as that seemed the 'safest' day when things were changing last year, but that was cancelled and moved to Sunday, when I checked just 2 flights per week wee showing, perhaps that'll change if the April announcement is positive.
Original seat map on the return had me at the front of a 'quiet' CE, but I've been moved back 4 rows in the change with the CE showing pretty full.
The bubbly had better not run out before reaching me!

Our 12 May LHR-PHX obviously CNX as it predates UK Gov travel ban easing.
However, ba.com shows numerous options with AA, via assorted US airports such as MIA and DFW.
