I think that BA are probably w-a-a-a-a-y ahead of themselves here. There is no doubt that paper timetables will cease to exist, in the same way that paper telephone directories will cease.
BUT, whilst the majority of the punters are those that grew up with paper - paper is still needed!
When the 20-somethings have become 50-somethings, then it will be possible to phase out paper. For my part, I am delighted and would not consider having paper. I can download what I want and with a phone call (voice or data), find out the rest. That said, this afternoon I am trying to get infor from the Exec Club site to use my miles on a trip - and it is slow (I am on broadband) and I cannot find the info.
If I was heading to back of beyond, then I would think about taking all relevant paper with me. As it happens, my travels keep me in the mainstream.
So, comfort yourself that BA is 30 years ahead of the competiton.
