I remember having a similar issue, as I was asking BA to re-book me after a cancelled avios flight. I put the cash value of the avios in the amount section of the form but then stated clearly in my written submission that my preference was for rebooking. The final judgment instructed BA to rebook me as requested. So they are free to make non cash awards. I guess the question would then be did you write in your submission that you were claiming both the cash and the avios?

In the text of my submission I wrote “I seek: • £220 compensation under UK261 / EU261 • Refund of 23,500 Avios”

Why don’t you get him a sup on your Amex Gold and then (get him to) book the flights on that card which he can then take with him?

French Daze & Ibiza Nights – 23rd – 30th July

I’ve got the access key and am waiting for a friend to confirm whether they can come…
Does anyone know if I’m allowed to book solo, and then add a second sailor later on?
Or is it best to book for 2 straight away ?

There was a thread on exactly this yesterday with a couple of readers’ useful examples given.

Thanks for signposting this, I don’t believe it covered the specific question about extended validity though

It will have already been extended by 6 months at least once I believe, and quite possibly twice, so it will be valid for bookings made by April ‘23 approx, and therefore for travel through to March ‘24. If you call Virgin they can clarify dates, it may very well have an expiry of Oct ‘23.

Appreciate it, thank you!
