    AA86 (ORD-LHR) delayed 15 hours, moved to AA98 but downgraded to PE, then upgraded to Bus.

    Assume no compensation as AA flight, though booking was BA. Will tier points still post? and still eligible for bonus tier points?

    Oh dear. At least you did end up travelling in business.

    Correct. No compensation as it is AA operated flight to UK

    I thought the bonus TP were only on BA flight numbers?

    You will probably have to chase BA for any TP

    It was booked on a BA flight number, so should get bonus tier points. (At least we did with QR earlier in the year).

    The shocking bit for a Brit would be that authorities investigated theft of a mobile phone. When was the last that happened here?

    Good morning from the departure lounge at a very pleasant Bergen airport.

    Newcastle-Bergen by train, 36 hours

    Bergen-Edinburgh by ERJ 1h35, but a lot less scenic!

    Good morning from a bustling Galleries South, I’ve given the scrambled eggs a wide berth. Looking forward to escaping the London heatwave for the PNW. Any restaurant recommendations in Seattle would be very welcome thanks!

    Looks like BACF have reduced LCY-BCN flights in their winter timetable.
