I flew with BA to/from Caracas in late 1997, probably November, on one of their 744s.
I also flew to Bogota sometime later on a 777, maybe that replaced a 744 on the route latterly.
I seem to recall an SE-FUK once upon a time. Wonder if it's still out there ?
Jump to postI think there'll be more too. I called them today (as I was booked on Luton - Isle of Man) with the intention of travelling from Birmingham instead, they advised calling back after the 11th as "not all the routes changes have been announced yet"
