    BA are getting a bashing today!

    I’ve just tried to check in for our flights tomorrow and got the following message:

    “BA – making your travel easier”

    Followed by:

    “We regret to advise that this section of the site is temporarily unavailable”

    Get to MAN extra early tomorrow then?!

    Update – finally managed to get boarding passes by trying several times, system kept crashing in between times but we have all 6 now!

    BA IT remains woeful.

    OLCI has been unavailable to me on my previous five BA flights and nobody at BA has a clue why. Next time I’ll try repeatedly as you reported.

    We have seats so we just rock up at NCL, check in and collect BP and move smoothly though the airport with no stress WSE

    We also have seats, but prefer to actually have the BPs rather than add an extra layer of admin at the airport! Also there’s less chance of being moved from your chosen seats/downgraded/bumped if you have a BP. Our long haul leg is full to the gills in CW so didn’t want to take any chances.


    @BJ
    , it was ridiculous, pretty much every time we managed to save one boarding pass the system crashed and we had to start again. Happened both in app and on laptop. We managed in the end by alternating between both our mobiles and the laptop, as each one crashed in turn after producing one of our 6 BPs!
