Anyone booked on this and already twitching about the BA strike? Anyone else with a MAN/ LHR connection?

I'm booked on this trip with the Manchester connection. Like you feeling a bit nervous about the strike situation and not sure when to start confirming arrangements.

Hi Frances. Good to know there's someone else out there. I'm booked on the 13.25 from Manchester - don't think we'll hear anything till next week at least about whether they'll be flying. I nearly didn't book because of the BA involvement, never having been that impressed by them, but suppose we just have to hang on then. Temperatures in Canada look a lot lower than our current heatwave!

Hi Ann/Frances

I'm also booked on this holiday, and am equally twitchy regarding the BA situation! Really looking forward to the trip (first time with JY), so I hope BA don't mess it up for us - so far they look to be getting people away, so fingers crossed. Look forward to meeting you both

Hi Chris and Ann,

I'm also on the 13.25 connection from Manchester - fingers crossed. I'm pretty excited now but it's my first time with Just You so a little nervous as well.

Hi

It looks like we were right to be twitchy regarding BA - the flight has been cancelled, but JY are promising an update (presumably alternative flight details)within 24 hrs. Here's hoping!!

Just heard from Just You with an absolutely horrendous rebooking via Gatwick and Toronto - lots of inconvenience, all within their rules, so no compensation, very little assistance. VERY UNHAPPY.

Scrub my last message!

It was worth being very unhappy and saying so - JY have been back to BA and got a much better booking! I imagine it costs BA more to get us direct to LHR on someone else's planes than via Gatwick on one of theirs. World's favourite airline? Thanks to Julia at JY for keeping trying. See you at MAN, Frances.

Glad you've got a more suitable alternative organised. I'm now on Canadian Airways flight AC853 from Heathrow Terminal 3 at 16.15. May see you there!?
