  Sounds like Virgin did forget about it – they’ve had since January (when status match was announced) to come up with a system! I guess they did have more important things to worry about, so it’s understandable, but still pretty poor show.

    Tbf to them, they only returned to T3 in the last few weeks & that was at fairly short notice so it would have been bottom of the list of priorities.

    Presumably they will have a limited validity as well so you’re better off not getting them till there’s a vague return to normal schedules otherwise they’ll expire unused.

    Not sure that’s true: Is travel back to normal yet? Nope. Is this the first time we’ve been reminded of it? probably. So it’s not exactly at the front of everyone’s mind. And if you’ve been to the Clubhouse when it’s busy, you’d understand the frustration for a customer if the front desk responded with, “There’s no room at the inn!”

  BA screwed me over yet again. Needed to get to Edinburgh and had the option of London City or Heathrow. London City was ~£100 more overall (for two) but we booked that as we live near it and so it is much more convenient. Fast forward a few months and BA cancel the City flight and put us onto the Heathrow one. Of course now the Heathrow has gone up to close to what we originally paid so it looks like for like. But if I had booked Heathrow at the time I would have saved ~£100.

  Is there anything I can do in this situation? It really seems unfair.

    It’s not really being screwed over, I don’t think BA has something against me even though they love cancelling my Bologna flights.

    Your options are:
    – Cancel for a full refund, maybe rebook on LNER
    – Move to another LCY flight if there’s ones still operating
    – Accept the LHR flight and remember in the current situation cancellations are commonplace so it’s not worth paying extra for the perfect flight.

    Once your flight is cancelled you have freedom to move it to another flight even if that flight was more expensive.

    So when I book flights I book for the day I want to travel, I won’t pay extra for more convenient flights knowing they could well be cancelled.

      The other option is to ask BA to move you back onto a LCY flight at an alternative time. There are still flights from there to Scotland, just not as many. They don’t know which option you would find most convenient so picked one for you… but you don’t have to accept it, you can ask for an alternative that suits you.

        I did mention that 🙂
        – Move to another LCY flight if there’s ones still operating

        For some reason (well I’ve missed flying CityFlyer since I’ve been out the UK!) I’m flying LBA-BHD-LCY tomorrow and both flights appear to be very busy.

          Unfortunately I have to travel up on the Saturday and there are no other LCY flights that day. I feel I’ve been screwed over.

  15k a pair was my best price for the Marriott O2 box, and for a gig I actually wanted to go to. Win win all round.

    Looking back I usually paid 45k but Childish Gambino was only 20k.

      I was there for the Gambino gig!

      I think my 15k was for Davido

        Good wasn’t it? And H.E.R. supported I think.

    I last used 45K for ‘The Script’ gig at the end of February 2020. I’m guessing it was one of the last gigs before lockdown. Mind you, it was probably a super-spreader too! Jam packed! Always, enjoyable, but, as Rob says, you are a long way back!

  Looks like the O2 Suite has been pulled from the Moments website again – it’s no longer showing anything for the UK.
