Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
Rupee exchange rate - a week or so ago it was over 88, yesterday I got just over 85, and today to rub salt in the wound the bank emailled me with a special offer of an extra 15 paisa on exchange starting today.

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
Never again, ever!! with British Airways.
Boarded our flight at 9.0pm, 2 hours later finally told "plane going nowhere". 3 mechanical problems!!! Now 12.30am OH in the queue with our food vouchers then sometime or other? to a hotel.
New flight at 4PM this afternoon.
So of course missed our Goa flight, will have to rebook on some flight or other.
This is the second time this has happened to us, OH was so keen to use BA in case Jet went same way as other Indian Airlines, but never again.

Look on the positive side Bipat - Complementary meals, free hotel accommodation and an additional two hundred pounds by way of apology! Any way better they fix it at the airport than realise its broken in the air!
I'd be p****d off as well!

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
Maybe they could have found the faults before we boarded. Hope it is a different plane this time.
Premier Inn, not that great, international phone calls so difficult (we had to alert rels. due to meet us). No signal in hotel.
Anyway now back at Heathrow.

IMHO (as Andy would say), BA are cr@p, and an embarrassment to Great Britain...................but then they have been for over 30 years
