There will probably be some sort of parking charge, but likely to be much less than the usual cost
The cost should be a bit more than what it would cost BA to fly their aircraft to Doncaster and park them there instead

Plenty of ramp space at BAMC and adjacent disused taxiways at CWL which have been used to park up aircraft in the past.

Glasgow expecting several BA aircraft for storage tomorrow !

Alex Cruz on Friday stating it was a fight for survival.

IAG saying today they have £9bn in the bank. If I was working for IAG in normal times and knew they had that nest egg stowed away... it's a bloody ostrich egg.

Not letting a good crisis going to waste?

Another complication here is that It is not an absolute "travel ban". For all BA know you might be in one of the groups that is still able to enter to the US...

I received something similar for my trip to Beirut. Lebanon is in complete lockdown and is banning all direct flights from many nations including the U.K. even if I travel on 10th April I will be put into isolation when I arrive. I expect BA to have cancelled and refunded my flight not offer me a voucher.

I’m a UK citizen and I’ve travelling for a holiday. I can’t go....

Indeed now 7 parked up at NWI and 3 at Southend, so leaves about 8 in the Citiflyer fleet actually flying?

Where else will BA be storing grounded aircraft?

bit more than that. Current fleet is around 26 with recent additions.

so 10 parked leaves 16 flying

a few on the ramp tonight

Ah thank you thought it was a bit more

Looks like some A321s. Will be a bit of a sad sight.

Positioning to GLA from LGW today for storage

I was due to fly to Vegas on 25 March, have had emails up to and including yesterday from BA Executive Club along similar lines, However On Saturday I had an email from BA Holidays saying

3 777's currently en-route LHR to HAV (not a BA destination as far as I know) under BAW9xxx flight no's

Assume these are charters/rescue flights of some sort? - cruise ship pax perhaps?

Mine is flight only to Los Angeles which I have booked through a Travel Agent. Trying to get through to them is non existent. I just want to cancel and get a refund.

I believe they are related to a rescue mission for a cruise. I think on behalf of Fred Olsen

Think its FCO arranged. One ship to evacuate is Fred Olsens Braemar that has quite a few on board who have the virus..Been at sea due to nowhere prepared to accept it until Cuba stepped in as a humanitarian gesture. Maybe other ships making for there as well.

Yes, two 777-300s and one 777-200 are en-route to HAV to bring back cruise pax tomorrow. Also two 777-200s are heading for Punta Cana (from LGW) to operate repatriation flights.

Yes, it was announced that British citizens on the Braemar are to be brought back today.
