Make sure your passport is valid on BA....

I'm just amazed that this could not have been sorted out on site PDQ via the old fashioned telephone.

Which was my point regarding G4S; I wasn't describing the CSA's at the gate though edi_local but rather the service BA contracts G4S to provide Visa information for over the phone. strawberry Ribena states they are only used for US/Canadian queries and as mine was for one of these, I can't add anything further to the discussion.
