The status on this page also reflects recent user reports, so read it as a community signal rather than an official announcement from the company.

About British Airways
British Airways is a travel service listed in our directory (www.britishairways.com). Booking failures during fare sales are common; wait for a proper confirmation before paying twice.
A quick tip before you assume the worst: run the live check above, glance at the recent user reports, and try the five-minute fixes below — most “outages” turn out to be a stale browser cache or a shaky connection. If British Airways handles payments or bookings, keep screenshots of any error screens and reach official support through the links on this page instead of waiting on social media.
Fix it yourself
Five quick things to try before concluding British Airways is down.
- Hard-refresh the page — press Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) so British Airways loads a fresh copy instead of a stale cached one.
- Switch your connection — move between Wi-Fi and mobile data to rule out a local network problem.
- Try incognito mode — a broken browser extension or corrupted cookies can stop British Airways from loading while it works fine for everyone else.
- Swap the app and the website — if the app fails, try the website (or the other way round) to see whether the problem is limited to one platform.
- Wait it out — if our live check also fails, the fault sits on British Airways’s servers and usually resolves on its own; check back in 15–30 minutes.
