I'd like to book a ticket in October and ideally support BA but I just don't trust the schedule to be operated, and having my ticket rescheduled for a flight 6 hours different isn't what I want - and I have no desire to spend half an hour waiting on a phone arguing with someone why I should get a refund instead of a voucher if this happens
Anyone know when BA will publish accurate October schedules for short-haul ?
There's a familiar pattern where BA extends by a month its policy allowing passengers who don't want to fly to exchange their ticket for a voucher for future travel. Then a couple of weeks later, BA processes mass cancellations.
