Good afternoon Rod, just arrived home after getting up at 4 a.m for the flight home. Your better off being your boss and King of the road What a shower British Airways turned out to be. I just checked BA and our flight is still cancelled. I spoke to a BA Captain at the airport and he said he didn't know anymore than we did. He then legged it with the check in staff and left everyone to fend for themselves. We managed to buy some tickets in the airport last night and get on an Italian charter at 7 a.m for Milan.
An elderly couple in their 80's saw us buying the tickets and approached. They said they were in the same boat and asked if they could tag along, both looked wrecked and frail, a bit forlorn. Of course we helped them do the booking, arranged a hotel and get on the flights through everything. They adopted us In Milan, we had to change airlines and found seats on an EasyJet flight to Gatwick, so here we are. The elderly couple had family to meet them We are going to claim for compensation. BA should really be ashamed of themselves treating people like that, so disrespectful and shoddy customer service....rant over! |

I should think BA will lose a heck of a lot of custom through their appalling treatment of those left stranded.
People fully understand that there was a system failure and that sort of thing can happen....... but the lack of communication and assistance given to their customers is nothing short of a disgrace for our Flag carrying airline Glad you got home eventually Phil and Jessica and well done the both of you assisting those poor folk

Hi Phil welcome home, my sister in law was due to fly back to Aberdeen this evening, at 18.00 hrs, printed off her boarding pass this morning, got to Heathrow at 15.30 hrs, when we got there they were only letting people in who were flying out, so we came home, she was waiting on our doorstep, they had cancelled her flight, why on earth did they not know that, next bookable flight is Wednesday at 14.45.

It does look as if there should be some decent pies around if nothing else
