Sorry old chap but I totally disagree. Like MPN11, I have flights booked up until October & will be booking LHR-CPT when I return from Grenada next month.
I don't know why people have to disagree with my decision, since I don't disagree with anyone elses.
We all make decisions in the context of our personal circumstances.
If I was flying long haul point to point, I would be much less worried, but BA's record in supporting short haul is nowhere near as good as long haul.
My boss would simply ask why take any risk with an important business trip, when there are other options; and he would have good reason to ask, as his responsibility is to run the business and deliver results, not worry about an(y) airline.
