I just booked LHR to EWR for second week of December. I could be wrong but it seemed like BA was literally adding more flights as I was booking.
Is it likely they will continue to add flights now? Presumably they were running a hugely reduced service until this announcement with some planes still grounded?
I ask because I'd actually prefer the weekend before so might try and keep an eye out for new times being added
(Sorry for the double post...)

JoBi (
