I've got a weekend bounce to Preveza next weekend, an error fare which only lasted a couple of hours, BA managed to have a fare of £0

Me too, I guess the impact financially was pretty small, it was only in the wild for a few hours. They then zeroed all flights to Preveza for a couple of days whilst they fixed it, probably cost them far more on lost business for that.

The lounge food offerings looked sad compared to the AI food. The AI food was impressive.

I was very pleasantly surprised. If only they could consistently get the temperature right it’d go from good to excellent.
