  OT but BITS

  I had booked some internal AA flights in America this summer and have just received an email telling me that they timings of these have changed, they all seem to have shifted by about 30 minutes.

  When I initially booked these my OH was BA silver so we were able to select the Main Cabin Extra seats for free but now she’s fallen to Bronze and they’re trying to charge $100+ each for each leg of the journey. Is there any easy way to resolve this or am I stuck having to call their CS?

  Thanks in advance

    There’s nothing you can do, unfortunately. As a Bronze, you can select Main Cabin Extra seats for free once on-line check in opens.

    Call them and be nice.
    Success not guaranteed – even if it’s unfair. But give it a try.

      Worth a go, but from my experience, you get a “computer says no” response :/

  BA Club Europe revenue ticket from CDG to LHR.
  Is this 40tp one way?
  I also have a dragonpass; what is the best lounge I can access in terminal 2? Is it still the Cathay?

  Thanks.

  • Rob says:

    Yes, still Cathay the best option and still 40TP.

    Best by far.
    Get there before they have to close it in current problems. Good pods to work in and ok showers.

  Qantas also doing a lot of cancellations and grounding 8 of their a380’s. The London – Sydney route is not going be A380 via Singapore but become another 787 ‘non-stop’ service via Perth. Starts from April 20th and I’ve got a flight in May but it was one of those 100 promo flights so can’t really complain about no longer being on a nice empty A380…

    hadn’t heard about this. seems a strange move when they had such problems recently due to not being able to fly over Iran. there was talk about having to offload a pile of economy passengers in order to save fuel for the longer journey.

      We have KLM Toronto to ams next week. What sort of price can we get upgrade for? Is it worth negotiating once they offer something?
      On our way here we were offered 479/person and passed as it was a day flight (they mentioned there was 18 empty business seats)

  I notice looking ahead to book some domestic flights for May that prices are significantly higher than expected…instead of the expected £45 EDI-LHR, they are all around £100 each way. Is this a consequence of reduced capacity?

    BA put up Edinburgh prices sharply as soon as Flybe collapsed.

  • Lady London says:

    10 Mar10 March 13:45

    As flights are being identified that are likely to be cancelled you can expect prices on nearby flights to go up a lot short term.

    Reason is you’d only be travelling if you must, demand moved from other flights will push prices up and short term airlines will first try to recoup any overall losses on flights they are actually flying.

  OT Amex SPG – they just called to say they will be upholding my complaint about the points applied. Be interesting to see how many goodwill points they provide.
