British Airways just notified me that my flight from London to Malaga is now cancelled. I have yet to receive the cancellation from Amsterdam back to London yet.

British Airways is cancelling my flight from London to Athens. For some reasons, I made the wrong booking, I thought I booked from Madrid to Athens. Anyway mistake was made and I still got refunded.
However, they are not cancelling flight from Amsterdam to Kondon, they have to move British people back to the UK.

I finally got a cancellation from BA that the flight from AMS to London is now cancelled. I will call to get my money back. I’ve been waiting for this one.

I won't be surprised if soon they don't run out of money to give back.

Credit card customers can dispute the charge up to 60 days from the date of the statement that shows the ticket purchase. No tickee no chargeee.

Yes I was worried about it, so I called and they are processing my refund. But I was unable to get refund online for cancelled flights, they said they would give me vouchers, no I don’t want vouchers.

Some of my tickets were purchased last year using Avios, but the refund is for the tax they charged.

I'd bet the majority of air traveler purchase tickets more than 60 days in advance.

I flew from Dublin to London on BA last Sunday evening and there were maybe 24 people on the plane. They seemed to be scrambling to consolidate flights and cancelling many. They can't keep flying empty planes.

posted this in another thread, might as well post it here also.

Well it looks like Aruba just extended there travel ban till april 19, my trip was booked to leave on the 14th. So i guess i'll be speaking to JetBlue tonight, I have no interest in a voucher just want my money back. I hope I don't have to take the fight to my credit card company.
I may call the insurance company also, although I am sure they have washed there hands of everything with the help of nice confusing fine print.
I will post my findings soon as possible.
