Update after 3 additional calls:
- Yesterday, offshore call centre, they checked the booking, say it's still in the queue for ticket, call back tomorrow.
- This morning, probably hobart: See the problem, say it needs to go via OW desk, see that J were available, so bring my back in J, promise to call back tomorrow, and set it in his calendar. He also mentioned that the fact that Finnair operate this BA flight could be source of problem. I noticed that earlier and reply these seems to be a wetlaise.
- Got a missed call this arvo, called back, offshore, they check the itinary status, seems like there was no answer from OW desk yet, advised to call back tomorrow.
I never looked at checkmytrip.com up to this week, the booking status on this BA flight is "confirmed". Does that mean that my ticket is secured at this stage? It was like that since Saturday (before those 3 calls), I never checked before.
I hope this get resolved soon, Heathrow is now putting a cap of 100.000 pax a day, and asking airlines to stop selling ticket.
