Reply To: BA flight HND-LHR cancelled New flight NRT-HKG then HKG-LHR

1. How you paid for the flight should not change your rights (vs. Somebody that used only cash for instance). This is the most important bit!

2. You have the right for a rebooking so ask to be put on the direct JAL flight same class regardless of Avios availability. You can also take other BA direct flights the days after of before if there is ANY availability

3. Whatever you do DONT accept the new rebooking or cancel or ask for refund

4. Compensation is only due if the flight is in the next 14 days and you arrive to LHR 4 hrs later than planed. In this case it may be the last of your worries.

5. If you are given a flight that departs later they have to pay for the extra hotel nights and food. I suppose that is also the case if you need to spend more nights somewhere else.

Good luck, and try to post what you eventually get for others to use that as reference in the future.
