Hey Girls

Just a word of warning if you did not already know and you have booked BA flights to Cyprus.

They have sold the franchise airline GB airways that does the route to EASYJET!!!

All my family waited and waited to the day the flight came up available to book (to Paphos)and really wanted BA so they would be booked in through from Jersey and get a good luggage allowance.....then a week later got told the route had been sold !! Grr Too rude.. Too rude..

So now they lose the connection all the way through, the times are not guarenteed cause EJ might change timetable, they get less luggage allowance and are not even got a seat number!!! Too rude..

I am warning you cause BA are still selling the flight!!! Bielzebub Bielzebub

This will also be the same for any other destinations GB airways operate too.

Hopefully this wont affect any of you or your guests.

Cheers Laura x

Hey there

Mands - I am sure easyjet will eventually put the route on sale at the moment they have not got it!

I just can't belive BA are still selling it as a BA/GB airways flight when they know full well it has been sold !! As you say MrsMW GITS !!! Too rude.. Bielzebub Too rude.. Bielzebub

Girls I'd still check, but my knowledge of Cyprus would mean that if you mands/debs are flying to Larnaca, the likelihood is that you will still fly with BA or your friends will if that is who they have booked with. Ayia Napa holidays tend to fly to their (East side of the island), anyone going to Paphos/Coral Bay side (west of the island) may be affected. This tends to be a smaller airport so may be why this has happened.

If it has made the flights cheaper to Cyprus this is good news (Sorry LandN), but not so good if flights are still the same price with a budget airline and Bielzebub to BA who are still selling flights without telling people - thats v bad on them Too rude.. !

I've booked our flights through BA and a little later got an email say that from end of March easyjet are taking over. We got our flights qute cheap anyway (180.00 pp), but I was really annoyed that I'd not be flying with easyjet and not BA. Easyjet dont do any food, and I know I'm a minority but I like plane dinners, he he. Still if you have booked with BA they are offering to switch to easyjet or a full refund in the email they send so just look out for that Smiles

Hi Leese

You are not alone - I LOVE plane food !!! Knife and Fork Big Grin

My mum has had her email aswell, I think she is waiting to see what the connections are like - because we are in Jersey she has to get to London first!

I am sure will all work out fine!

Where are you getting married?
