arrived at IAD yesterday, several hours early for the 22.30 flight. Choice between spending $15.00 every 30 mins at the Hilton bar, or free drinks in the lounge. This was an avios booking.

I asked the check-in staff if I could move to the earlier 18.10 flight – I thought this would be highly unlikely given there was no avios availability. to my surprise I was moved. My connecting flight to Manchester was also moved to an earlier flight (again, this had no avios availability) meaning the 12 hour wait at Heathrow which I was expecting became just 90 mins.

I’m now back home 13 hours earlier than expected. So a big thumbs up to BA on this one – I love you (for now !! )

You owe BA £520, get it in the post ASAP 🙂
