Currently at Heathrow, booked on BA418/9 to and from LUX tonight, in CE
attempted to change to 416/7 in the gold wing but told 416 is full. It’s showing on expertflyer as Y4 and everything else zeroed.
Have I got any options? I’m assuming the Y4 is an overselling limit, but I seem to recall some sort of gold benefit allowing guaranteed seat o... Read More |

Good evening,
I am planning on a trip to Shetland Islands and I was wondering if BA do fly at all to Shetland since I could not find any flights?
Is there any way to redeem Avios on any other airline and enjoy frequent flyer benefits as BA Gold?
Thanks Read More |

Parking at Gatwick for a BA flight, in MMB I can book parking, however when it says check your details, it gives the exact departure and arrival flight times.
As you have to arrive a few hours before departure and on returning could be up to an hour after landing to get to the car park.
Normally, if booking direct, I would factor these times... Read More |

I'm in the process of setting up a family vacation cashing in some jokers and lots of Avios, and am considering somewhere like Phuket in August. This would ideally (but not necessarily) see us transit through BKK. And almost everything about that route seems to have hugely negative press here. Would I want to fly through a different Asian airport?... Read More |

My wife and I are spending two weeks in Australia in January and I'm looking for a bit of advice, mainly to make sure I'm on the right track. Our flights and hotels have been booked for a while, but we have some flexibility on our day-to-day plans. All tours booked are refundable, so I can change things up. With that said, it's our first time in Au... Read More |

PM on award booking with my daughter on the same PNR (she has no status). Flying next week MCO - ATL - DTW - LHR. Did that to get a great deal on the miles. There is a Delta flight leaving at the same time as our MCO - ATL flight going MCO - DTW with plenty of availability. I do understand Delta generally does not allow SDC on an international itin...

Hey all, recently had an interesting experience that the phone agent kind of shrugged off so I'm curious if it happens regularly. I purchased a round trip ticket with three legs on the departure in coach and three on the return in first - fare codes were V for the departure flights and I for the returns. I realized my routing was kind of stupid an... Read More |

So I just finished my first flight of two and we landed seemingly normal to me. It was a hard break but nothing that weird. We stopped a few feet from the gate and the pilot came on and asked us to remain seated with seatbelts fastened as “we landed a few feet short of minimum stopping distance and I have to call company.”
they let us off the plan... Read More |

I am GGL this year (TP end year on Dec 8th), and have qualified for GGL next year, ie through Dec 8th 2020 as well.
Looking ahead, I can predict I will not requalify for 2021, given changes at work. My travel may be so limited that I will likely not even qualify for Gold.
Thinking about the most efficient use of partner cards in this case--a... Read More |

A question from pure curiosity for the brains trust.
does anyone have any insight or guesses as to why:
1) why are most destinations shown with return prices but Japanese ones as one ways?
2) why only a very small number of destinations have sale prices from Canberra? Ie only Tokyo and Osaka (3 destinations out of 28 Int’l. on sale as of now) Read More |

Delta hasn't put this on sale in about a year. It's the 767s (boo) but at least they're lay flats. Service is great on this route.
Fares good 'til October, minus July and August.

Spotted from a Facebook group. Appears to be on BA173 rotation to JFK from September.
Club Suite is long, but split over the front three cabins after first. Y goes 10 across as expected and F shrinks from 14 to 8.
Seems the 77W’s will inherit more of the high-J 747 network, so perhaps with the A350 3-class and 4-class configs taking some of t... Read More |
