Hi

Our IM teams are looking into this issue but they have asked for the travel dates you were trying to book so they can replicate the problem.

Kind regards Karen

However trying to book on ba.com when I do LHR-RDU it is only showing me connections via New York, which happen to involve changing from JFK to LGA which is not very attractive. I don't see any option to "show more routes" or force it via multi-city to go through MIA. Help!??

Yes, I did, with several different browsers and computers, but it seems to be working fine now.

We have booked a flight and hotel package through BA.com and are not able to enter our booking online as it brings up the following message

"Error. Sorry we are unable to display your booking as there are no flights in the booking. Please contact your local British Airways office or travel agent"

So we have tried calling, spoken to about 3 or 4 different people to be told that someone is looking into this. I have emailed asking for help saying that I havent been able to get an answer by calling only to be given a standard 'sorry to hear you are having issues. Please call your local BA office'.

I understand that issues might arise but given that I booked through BA's own website and my flight is in 4 days (which will in turn mean I cannot check in online) - what can I do?

Has anyone else experienced similar problems booking a hotel and flight on BA.com?

Any help would be appreciated.
Scott

Sure. searching Sat 2nd July 2011, LHR-MIA BA0207 showing 4 available in F. Same day AAA0820 MIA-RDU also with 4 in F. Definitely enough connecting time and there is another later flight with availability too.

If I search LHR-RDU same day, I am not given MIA connecting option (seems to be same on any date - ba.com never seems to offer this routing). All options are connecting via JFK/LGA

Can't book LCY-MAD-XX-MAD-LCY in discount economy

3 really annoying issues, all involving flights through Madrid onto an IB codeshare:

1) When booking a LHR-MAD-XXX-MAD-LHR trip, only the LHR-MAD-LHR legs post into the BAEC account. The domestic leg never does and requires posting of boarding passes to BAEC (or arguements by email)

2) When trying to book a LCY-MAD-XXX-MAD-LCY trip, BA.com will only book one leg into J and the other into full-fare Y. It is however perfectly possible to book a discount economy ticket on Iberia.com

3) When using OLCI with an Iberia codeshare domestic (eg LHR-MAD on BA then MAD-XXX on Iberia), it is impossible to OLCI for the BA leg until the Iberia Leg has been checked in first as BA.com automatically routes one to Iberia.com

Its also impossible to select exit-row seats using mobile checkin (but this is more an iberia.com problem i think).

Please can the first 2 be fixed ASAP, it is really really annoying.

I booked another MFU from J to F today and it again shows that we have GF acces due to my Gold card and not the CCR.

Although not a major issue, it would be nice if it was somewhere on the to do list in the near future?

Any thoughts ba.com helper? Thanks.

Hi,

I am attempting to enter my details in Manage My Booking

When i submit them, I receive the error:
Error: There was a problem with your request, please try again later.

I googled this error, and found this page.

I am using my booking reference and lastname on the front page and am still receiving the error.

BA Helper - do you know what is going wrong?

Cheers,
Brendan.

BA Tierpoints and miles in the Top RH corner of the screen do not match the TP and Miles on my BAEC homepage...

I'm not sure if this one's already been brought up here - it's a bit of a long thread!

I have a ba.com booking that I'd normally be able to change online. Indeed, I will need to do so sometime in the next few days.

Unfortunately, the "Change date/time of my flight" option is grayed out, and when I click on it to try to see why, it says:

Originally Posted by Manage My Booking

I have a theory as to why this might be... the flight is showing a status (in "get your attention red") of "Confirmed. Please note new flight times." instead of the simple old "Confirmed." Could this be causing BA.com to treat my flight as something other than confirmed, and therefore not changeable online?

I'm not sure what other reasons there would be, so thought I'd put it up here.

Thanks.

Hi

I'm sorry you are having problems booking your flights.

I will raise this with our IM teams and get back to you with an update as soon as I can.

In the meantime, can you PM me the booking reference for the first issue so we can look at the live problem.

Kind regards Karen
