@Eli_6 did either of you use Fly2Fun?

nope. Not us, anyway. 
 

when I click “change seats” on the AA app, the original seats we booked for the BA flight show up. So maybe there’s hope yet? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[TxTeach79]

Welp. Even though they sold the tickets together and it’s all a partnership, AA gate agent say this is all BA’s fault and BA doesn’t open til 4, when we’ll be boarding to JFK. So as of now, B has no seat to LHR and they advised us to figure it out at JFK. About to get on the phone with BA customer service….

[TxTeach79]

I hope this is a good sign…

 

[TxTeach79]

Security was a snap, even if nothing else has been….

Wonder if they have Beverly. #IYKYK

Hey, that was my nickname in college

Of course, now that we’re through in D…. The amount of chaos on one screen….

 

[TxTeach79]

Made it to the priority pass lounge. B has already been disconnected from BA customer service once. It’s packed up here. But we got booze, baby.

What a nightmare with BA. I really hope they get it figured out and make it right for you. Also booze helps!

she’s still on hold and I’ve tweeted at them as well. Exhausting every avenue!

[TxTeach79]

I almost forgot - good thing I was 16+ pounds under on my bag weight, because B was 7 pounds over. Had to do some quick consolidation….

[TxTeach79]

It’s not good, guys. BA is zero help. Can’t do anything. B will have to exit the terminal, go back through security, and attempt to check in at a BA desk at JFK. 90 minute layover.

I will be saying a few prayers for my fellow Texans.

You have got to be kidding me??? How I that even a thing?? And why can they not help?

Yep. It’s not great. B’s mood has fallen off the table. Doesn’t even want to stay in the lounge. (It IS unreasonably warm up here). This sucks. Air travel sucks.

Yep. I can’t check my youngest girlfriend in either. Ain’t air travel fun?!? (I think @Jamman54 may have it right)

You mean you're not driving the tunnel to Barcelona? 😁

think we can get that built in time??

[carohs]

Oh my!! Can the gate agents at BA not help either? 90 minutes seems a little close but at least you have pre check! Best of luck 🤞

Agree. Fella on the phone at BA “wasn’t sure” if gate agents could do anything and we were told that BA doesn’t have a ticket counter staffed here until 4pm (we board at 4:15 for JFK and are already through security)

[TxTeach79]

There’s a flight that leaves DFW for LHR in an hour. I don’t believe the AA agent that BA isn’t staffed til 4. I’m holding seats in the lounge and B is headed to try and find a BA employee somewhere. Anywhere. 

[TxTeach79]

Welp, this is listed as a BA flight, it’s a few gates over, but when B got there it’s actually an AA codeshare flight, and once again she was informed there’s nothing AA can do. Even though the flights were all sold together and all show in the AA app. Still no BA employees in sight. She’s now trying to exit security and find a BA ticket counter 
 

[TxTeach79]

Now, they tell B the BA ticket counter opens at 3:15. She’s gonna wait there. I’ve now gotten a seat at the bar in the Club….

My bag has yet to make the journey to terminal C
