Someone replied: “I have the same problem. I’m trying to check in for tomorrow’s flight. The problem is with your website.”
A third asked: “What’s wrong with your website? It’s not charging and I need to check!”
Another wrote: “Is there something wrong with your website? I cannot check in online no matter what device I use. Error messages keep coming without explanation.”
Some said they tried to check in for “hours,” while others said they had similar issues with the app.
A British Airways customer service advisor responded on Twitter: “We are currently experiencing some issues with our website.”
“Our tech team is aware of this and is doing its best to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.”
However, a BA spokesman told Sun Online Travel that they were “not aware of any issues”.
