As the title says, need to be in CPH for the Tour De France tomorrow.
Just had a quick check of hotels (All Accor) and every hotel is fully booked at Heathrow.
No idea if the flight departure will move up, only need to be about 20 minutes sooner and we'll make the 20:15 LHR to CPH flight.
I could do without this.... Read More

This is an infuriated rant because BA is probably not only the most pathetic airline experiences but one of the worst experiences I have ever had as a consumer. I'm flying BOM to JFK on June 30 with a layover in LHR. The layover was tight, 65 minutes but it was unfortunately the only itinerary that worked for me timeframe when I was looking to book...

Arrived in CCR today en route SFO/LHR/ZRH in F to find that onward BA718 LHR/ZRH had been cancelled with only few hours notice, reportedly due to crew shortages.
Sat in CCR for over an hour with bleary eyed family awaiting re-booking, only to be told that there would be no availability to ZRH or even GVA for several days, until earliest the evenin... Read More

Recently, a lady on a 4hrs20' flight had that dog under her seat in the row behind me. She was in 3B on a B739. That animal barked loudly like every 2 minutes thru the entire flight to the very visible annoyance of all F pax!!! :mad:
I failed to realize initially how bad this will be, otherwise would have gotten off this flight.
I have never ever c... Read More

Does anyone know the AA policy regarding sick passengers? I recently flew business class from JFK-LAX. The woman in the seat next to me was extremely ill and spent most of the flight in the lie-flat position. She was wearing a mask but removed it occasionally to eat, drink, and speak on a couple of occasions. I'm not sure what her specific illness... Read More

Anyone seen them today? Off duty pilots are demonstrating at LAX, SEA, SLC, MSP, DTW, JFK and ATL. On duty pilots are also supposedly not wearing their hats today in a show of unity against the company.

My eight year old daughter was faffing around in the 787 toilets in F on a BA flight and having already finished got spooked when the toilets then appeared to flush themselves again a few minutes later without button being pressed again. I noticed the same thing again later - the toilet seemingly flushing itself not upon request a few minutes after... Read More

I have several trips booked LAS-LAX-MIA-PHL. LAS-LAX is on AS at 7:20PM arriving 8:35, LAX-MIA-PHL is on AA, Flagship J on LAX-MIA, leaving at 11:20PM.
I booked this way because (a) I prefer to stay in Vegas on my last day there rather than take a late morning or early afternoon flight home; (b) the last AA flight LAS-LAX is at 3:30PM; (c) I ha... Read More

Not sure this is a concern but never seen it before - just checked in for BA0109 tomorrow evening and as soon as I completed I had a Flight Delayed note on the app (now scheduled to leave at 23:00, from 21:15).
Is it usual for BA to know already that there will be a delay tomorrow evening? Should I expect bigger problems (cancellation) and is it... Read More

Just got through to BAEC Gold line in about 4 mins. Couldn't believe my luck until the poor agent had to tell me they have no system access; to accounts, e-tickets.....etc since 0830 (UK) this morning. She didn't know when they might come back online. Not ideal given the disruption they are having to rebook at the moment. Is it just the UK sys... Read More

As a lowly 25k, it is frustrating to fly a competitor. Booked a trip on April YYJ TO FLL and LGW to YVR.
Ended up on Westjet outbound. Around $600 vs $900 on AC in economy.
Returning PE also on Westjet. Just over $2000 vs $3600 on AC.
In the past it seems to me the fares stayed more in line. Guess this is what happens when demand exceeds supply... Read More

I mean, I'm sure everyone is already aware of this strategy, but I'm quite pleased with myself, so I'll share my story of buying two F upgrades for $194 on a transcon flight this weekend CMH-PDX.
I was originally booked this Saturday on CMH-CLT-PDX. First has been sold out CLT-PDX for weeks. No upgrade CMH-CLT at my 72 hour opening. Lord, I don'... Read More

So I've found myself far away from normal civilisation and a couple airlines have had it out with each other over who owns my ticket [slightly off topic].
In the end, both refused and both offered to replace my ticket after one claimed the other cancelled my ticket. I was denied boarding at the gate (I used mobile boarding pass to get through to t... Read More

Delta app kept spamming me every hour for 12 straight hours after check in, with this notification. And I am a solid 20K MQM short of reaching 2MM, So I knew my upcoming LAX-MCI flight wasn't going to get me 20K MQMs.
It was really annoying to say the least.... Anyone ever seen this? And of course, nothing happened when I took the flight last nig... Read More

I am on AA716 on a Y (S) ticket and was on the upgrade list (SWU) - 3rd on the list - 1 and 2 cleared and when I got to the gate (running, because my FLL flight was delayed) the agent said - hi Mr Flying Geek. Sorry, there is no more space in Business. I have a a middle seat in PE - would you prefer that over the Aisle seat in Coach? I said yes - g... Read More

Hi all,
I'm due to fly BA238 tomorrow and after going through OLCI this morning , the app was straight away showing the flight as delayed 2 hours, to 9am instead of 6.55am.(but telling me to travel to airport as normal, the usual stuff...). I don't why but got curious and was wondering how they knew so far in advance that it would be delayed (I hav... Read More

Certainly not the first or last time this has been happening.....
I've only had to do this once before, when I was in Las Vegas last October - it was faster/easier to take an Uber to the Premium check in line @ McCarran from the strip than it was to wait four hours for AA to call me back - thankfully the agent took pity on my and put me in 1st for... Read More

I’ve noticed in many recent posts discussing the multitude of issues with BA at LHR that many people got the dreaded text/email about bags not being offloaded and getting them at some point but who knows when.
I was just wondering for those who experienced that in the last few days, can you comment on if your bag has had any kind of update and i... Read More

Hi experts
I’m meant to be flying back from OPO tomorrow morning but have had the not-unexpected email to says it’s cancelled and to rebook for the next day.
There is vague info on BA supplying accommodation but no info on how to get it. Is it best to get my own hotel and claim it back, or should I go to the airport and speak to staff there?... Read More

BA have cancelled my inbound flight (13 days notice). The alternative flights are much cheaper than the price I paid. If I change the inbound flight will BA refund the difference, or is it best to cancel, ask for a refund and book an alternative flight as a new booking? Thanks. Sorry of this is covered elsewhere.

Are you sitting comfortably I want to tell you a story, and hopefully a bit of sage advice.
My son and I was enjoying a nice holiday in Antigua which was a 2-4-1 LHR -JFK with a redemption on AA JFK-ANU-JFK and another 2 days in NYC before the return. 4 hours before the ANU-JFK and after we had booked out of the hotel AA cancelled the flight. Th... Read More

So received an email that LH has cancelled the first segment of our BER-MUC-BCN. They gave a link to connect to their rebooking website, but that doesn't work - I get though to connecting to live chat but then wait and wait before finally getting disconnected. I'm trying to call different numbers around the world but just can't get a live agent o... Read More

Was looking to book a flight to PIT and noticed last week United changed pricing on every direct roundtrip flight from IAH to PIT to over $2K for the rest of the year. I thought it was some pricing glitch, but has been like that for a week now. Does anyone know what's going on?? Unfortunately United is the only non-stop game in town. Read More
