Had BA293 to IAD cancelled so we've switched m to BA175 to JFK. Complicated that my wife and I are on a companion voucher and our daughter is on a paid ticket but managed to get this switched after an hour long call with BA.

NAP has been shredded for August with cancellations and now one flight a day in the very late evening (NAP-LHR).

I'd like to hope that if/when Italian law changes on quarantine, BA change it.

LHR-BJV down from x3 weekly to x2 weekly
LHR-AYT down from x1 daily to x4 weekly

For August,

If Turkey remains on the red list, I suppose these routes would be cancelled for the first half of August.

BA 165 LHR-TLV cancelled for 01/08 and it looks that they will be doing only the evening flight early August.... had enough of vouchers and requested refund, bought a ticket on VS, better flight times to and from TLV, I am afraid I don't want to have to get up at 4 am to come back or arrive just after midnight.

Just had a mail that BA731 GVA-LHR was canned on 30/08 (Bank Holiday Monday). Rebooked on a flight 4 hours earlier, just before midday. Bummer for a long weekend...

September BA flts from/to both YVR and YUL in September seem increasingly unlikely view Canada's ongoing Tourist Ban----unless someone knows something to the contrary----long-booked 2for1's almost worthless unless BA routes everyone via YYZ-------but at whose expense?

BA have just reduced their DME flights frequency in August from daily to 5 flights a week (Mon-Thu + Sat), which is still an increase from 3 flights a week now. Schedule still shows A320 metal, fingers crossed they are switching to B777/B788 closer to the dates.

So my Aug 20 LHR-KEF and my AUG 29 KEF-LHR were both just canceled. Five bookings in 2021, all five canceled. Refunds requested for each.

So my fourth booking which was canceled three weeks ago still shows up in MMB. Should I be concerned, even though I've already received the refund?

Same happened to me. I cancelled my BA Holiday to Malta last week and have received a refund, but the booking is still active with a ticket number.

I actually just clicked on the booking for the first time since canceling it and it says "We're processing a refund for this booking" - still in MMB which is a pain, but doesn't seem to be an issue.

Ah well at least you’re sorted. I’m in a weird limbo 😂

If I remember correctly from my cancelled booking from earlier in the year, it will continue to show on your list of upcoming trips until the flight date has passed.
