Two of us are booked with BA Holidays to go to Malta (6-13 June 2020). To date I have paid just the deposit (2 x £150) with the balance of £1320 due by 2 May. I assume that BA will not decide if the flight and hotel are viable until closer to the departure date. However, if I don't settle the balance by 2 May, I also assume that BA will cancel the...

It looks like quite a few nice deals with Aeromexico departing Europe. On a few routes this means 2x on 787 with lie-flat seats. Can anyone go below US$1,000? Read More

What are the chances of AC emulating WestJet's Travel Bank concept. I recently cancelled seven WestJet flights for six different people, all but one a family member. The bookings were all made by me using my email address and CC. WestJet cancelled all tickets placing everyone's credit in my Travel Bank (~$8,200 now), good for 24 months. I can the... Read More

I'm seeing OSL-LHR throughout May and June for only £9 one way. I've seen the odd inbound flight in the £10-20 range before but never single digits. Can anyone beat this? Read More

The Department of Transportation issued an emergency notification to commercial carriers today. That notice, among other things, affirmed that the airlines are required to offer refunds for conditions that would cause the travel to not be able to occur , or in other words, corona virus. It can be found here:

Hi All, Does anyone know if there is a workaround to this? I'm looking to book an Avios redemption with a domestic leg starting in EDI, for example, EDI-LHR-HND, but I get stuck in a loop regarding stopovers or no stopovers. I can see there is Avios availability for both legs if I search EDI-LHR and then LHR-HND. Any help would be most... Read More

Hi FT, Just trying to add a hint of levity for all FTers with this thread. To start, I will nominate Boston's city hall, 456 Park Ave. in New York City, and anything by Gehry. I will add more (with photos) later on. What are some of your picks? Read More

What's the story? It's supposed to be temporary. Terminal 7 is more cozy once you pass security and has a nice baggage claim. However, Terminal 8 has better check in, faster security with a PreCheck line more of the time, and better gate areas. Alaska did temporarily move from Terminal 3, concourse E in Las Vegas to Terminal 3, concourse D because... Read More

Just got a schedule change notification for 5/31 ... went to look at options and close to everything is zero'ed out. All ATL-MCO nonstops gone. I hope this is transient but if not I think we're seeing the ~80% cut happening now.... Read More

Hi there, Another disappointing move from Marriott: they are shutting down Marriott Insiders later today. Only 24h notice. While a couple of members have taken the initiative to hop over to Travellers Point, I'm not convinced it's the place for us due to their restrictions (can't tag members, not allowed to discus promotions, etc.) Are you...

Swing of around $40 per ticket depending on when book and wondering why if unrelated to fuel charges. Read More

I booked a flight from JFK to MAD for June 29 and used an SWU to upgrade on AA metal. The flight still shows in my aa.com account and not showing canceled, but when I try to book it. The only options showing are different flights on Iberia. Not sure what this means. I would like the refund rather than a cancellation, Thanks in advance for t... Read More

Interesting sale with Malaysian Airlines from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Jeddah, Saudia Arabia on their Airbus 380s in First Class. These can be booked as a one-way for $1054 or round-trip for $1734.

Hi all, Mods if you think this would be better suited to the "May 2019 Covid Schedule" thread then feel free to merge. We've got a trip planned to MCO towards the end of May which we booked months ago. Obviously with the current situation, who knows whether we'll be able to travel - at the moment I'd say not a chance, but you never know! A... Read More

I read various reports that NZ is trying to evade local rules and trying to implement some rules in their own CoC regarding refunds - specifically their own rule that states that if it is circumstances beyond their control (which COVID-19 is obviously) that they can use their own discretion to either choose a cash refund or a credit. However, th... Read More

We were booked in Delta One, using Virgin Atlantic miles for a trip to Asia in April. Now that we have to cancel due to COVID-19, we were looking to rebook after June. I can't seem to find ANY DeltaOne availability at all from DTW, ATL, or MSP to Asia - but the flights look available on Delta (at saver rates). With the ongoing crisis, is Delta n... Read More

So EZY grounded its whole fleet for at least two months - with our luck our first ever EZY flight is during that period. They give no refund option online, but on must call in. The phone is on automatic mode, "call back later", so no luck during the whole week. So I thought "hey, I paid with AX, let's make a chargeback" - well think again. I exp... Read More
