Reply To: Avios flight cancellation – rebooking help!

[thom]

Your rights are outlined under EU/Uk261 article 8. It sounds like you are interested in section b. “re-routing, under comparable transport conditions, to their final destination at the earliest opportunity”

If BA doesn’t have available flights themselves then they absolutely could (and should) put you on another airline. However, enforcing your rights might require taking them to CEDR/MCOL however …

Do note, Avios availability is irrelevant for replacement flights, but they would have to have a business class seat available!

Check the cancellations thread for more info or search the site for EU261 to get some background.
