BA mystery flights: My wife was scheduled
My wife was booked to fly from Newcastle (NCL) to LHR Tuesday morning - 26 July- returning Wed 27 July with BA. When I went to check her in this morning, we got this screen...
Not allowed to show it yet but it said "Your flight is due to depart as planned....."
On further digging, it looked as if it applied to the return flight on the Wednesday. So, having the grey hair and a cynic, dug further to see what the alternative flights might be for her return on Wednesday. NONE. There are no flights inbound from LHR to NCL that day. Or the next. Or the next. So how can the flight be due to depart as planned ? Seems basically BA are quite happy to fly a customer down to London and then basically strand them. So the initial message is an out and out lie. Always been a fan of BA. No longer.
But it gets curiouser. There are several flights outbound from NCL to LHR that day. So if the planes are not incoming from LHR then where have they come from ?
Any input gratefully received.
