Cancelled flights and the Luxury travel Dilemna

Even with luxury travel, cancelled flights mean that no matter how much we have paid for our flight, even if we have paid for 1st class tickets, we still do not get to fly. With British Airways strikes and volcanic ash, it has been harder for us all and the problems have been regardless of the class of service paid for. It does help I have to admit though to have the 1st class lounge andLuxury air travel also the ability to access the Internet in the lounge for booking an alternative flight - hence even in times of delayed and cancelled flights, 1st class travel can mean one is still better off.

The dilemma in many ways comes in whether or not to keep faith with an airline such as British Airways. I love their 1st Class service when travelling long distances. I love the food and the overall experience. But with the prospect of continued strikes it is a danger to put too much faith and money into booking British Airways flights. So do I keep faith in BA or change to another airline? I am still deciding.
