BA cancels flights due to "snow"
Was reported on the BA News Intranet that BA has been "proactively" cancelling flights due to snowy weather today (Thursday).
Having spent the day at Waterside I couldn't help but notice the steady streams of aircraft landing on 09L and the lack of snow (ok had a bit of sleet in the morning).
Rumour has it that BA Operations are cancelling flights under the pretence of "adverse weather conditions" so that they can avoid paying passengers the new EU compensation, when in fact the reason for cancelling the flight is lack of crew.
Anyone in compass centre care to shed any light?
If it is true flights were canx due to weather than is this not a dangerous game for BA to pay?
Are there any passengers who turned up at the airport for a flight that was cancelled due to weather, reading this forum
