BA was very helpful for me as well . Flight from BKK to Delhi , with connection on Indian Airlines . A wild scrum at Indian Airlines check-in counter , and I could not get past the mob . I asked a passing BA local employee what to do ? Without hesitation , he went behind the counter , told the IA people that he would help me as I am a BA passenger , and he then came around and handed me back my ticket and a boarding pass , and told me it was the last seat . He refused to take my proferred $ 50. tip .
