Flights cancelled on Avios booking with Alaska – what are the rebooking rights?

Hi,
I had a booking in July for return flights from SEA to YYC with Alaska Air using Avios through BA. These flights were to link up with LHR-SEA flights using a 241.

Alaska has cancelled my original flights and moved me to the nearest (later) flight. On the return journey it is quite close to the SEA-LHR so I would like to move it to the day before to make sure I don’t miss the flight to LHR.

What are the rules/re-booking rights for cancelled Avios flights? Are they different from “cash” flights?
Does there need to be Avios availability on the flight the day before?

Many thanks,
Chris

You unfortunately have no statutory rebooking rights, so best to speak with BA as you booked with them and see what they will do. Alaska would ordinarily help, but as booked through BA, they may not.

You can ask BA to request the flight you want via the Oneworld liaison desk
