Many thanks, I forgot about the Manchester Prestwick JFK flights , makes perfect sense.
I knew the actual islands stopped at from day to day and as you sai some stopped at BDA as well.
I flew LHR-Barbados on a SVC10 it ledft LHR alte mornign and would have been able to do BGI -JFK evening trip.
I think the crews stayed swapped in Barbados as Trindidad wasnt the best place back then and Georgetown totally scary and cannot imagine BA overnighted there .
I love to look back on those old 1970s BOAC timetables, so incredible complicated and a world (almost 50 years !! ) away from todays almost totally out and back trips . I feel myself lucky to have done a few of them tiring as they were ina way they were a great experience two of my favourites being LHR-Nicosia, Khartoum , Addis Ababa Seychelles SV10 or HKG-Rangoon -Calcutta -Bahrain -Rome-LHR 747-136
