COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Travel Updates by British Airways

As the preventive measures to contain the COVID-19 are escalating, the airlines are also taking steps to align their activities with the most up-to-date travel advisory by FCO. In such efforts, some of the flights cancelled and travel restrictions were also put in place which has given rise to uncertainty for other trips as well. 

Recently, British Airways clarified rumours about cancellations on a flight to Cayman. Furthermore, it announces that airline will be functional for flights on 22nd March 2020. In case of changes, it will be communicated to customers directly on their contact information.

Similarly, if you have your flight scheduled with BA anytime soon, we insist our travellers contact their booking agents at the earliest and check the flight status before making their way to the airport.

TravelhouseUK recognizes that the British people might be anxious for their travel plans impacted by Coronavirus. Keeping in mind, we are maintaining close contacts with travel providers to bring the most authentic information to you. We extend our special support to the people affected by the ongoing measures to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
