In case anyone is still trying to book return trips for Jan 2026, I called<span style=”white-space: pre; pointer-events: none;”> </span><chrome_annotation role=”link” style=”border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; pointer-events: none; border-bottom-color: rgb(51, 51, 51);”>+1800 452 1201</chrome_annotation> at 23:45 last night but never got through to anyone. Was on hold for over 30 minutes by which time I had already made my booking online, though I had to settle for economy as we’re not flexible on the return date. I expected T355 bookings would be competitive this week but didn’t anticipate how much earlier I should try to join the queue as I’ve never had to call for a 241 redemption before.
On the upside, I sent a message to BA on X at 12:30am and was impressed they had refunded half my Avios within a couple of hours.
Same here last night – now have 3 eco seats (need 4!). Need to hope for something to come up as it’s really not ideal.
