  Contacted the guy on FlyerTalk on Tuesday about a refund of my cancelled trip. Never heard back and refund has already hit my card and Avios redeposited. An excellent result.

  Ps a reminder any refund will pro rata through any household account you are in. I did wonder at first why I didn’t receive the full amount.

  Hi All!
  Have a cash booking with BA (Paris to Vancouver, J upgraded to F with a Gold Upgrade Voucher) for May. One flight has been cancelled so I know I can call and ask for a refund, but I would most likely lose my Gold Upgrade ( It’s a very old one, I used it when I booked last July, and its expiry date was Sep 2019)?
  1/If I ask for a rebooking, what is the window BA would accept me to rebook it to (without having to pay any fare difference)?
  2/ Assuming I can rebook it at a later date, then I guess I take the risk not to be able to cancel if there were travel restrictions still and all new flights would, however, be operating?
  Thank you for any piece of advice –

    I got a 12 month extension on my gold upgrade voucher! My advice would be to give the gold / GGL a call! The gold line have been fantastic recently and very flexible.

    Another option is to rebook your current flight instead of taking a refund

  intereting:

  Analysis by US-based Dollar Flight Club, based on patterns after previous crises, predicts average fare falls of 35% through 2021, but for prices to then double by 2025.

    Would make sense if capacity is restricted by pullbacks and bankruptcies

  I’ll re-post this tomorrow as it’s quite late. I made a curve payment on my laptop and it needed a verification code but I could not make it work, despite curve being open on my mobile. I then made the same payment on my (android) mobile, again with the curve app being open and the verification was NOT in the app, but rather via a PUSH notification. I pressed it, got asked to put my curve app pin in, then it all went through.

    Sounds like there are some issues with the integration of this feature into the curve app as you’re not the first person to mention it.
