We have a BA fly drive booking for 20th October Gatwick - Tampa.
As Tampa is not one of the airports open to UK atm I'd have thought they would have cancelled by now...
Just checked and could still book the same deal - we've only paid the £300 deposit so not the end of the world if we lose it, but does seem odd that it still gives us the option to pay the balance.

If BA follow the pattern they have been using in the last few months I would expect to start seeing October cancellations starting to be announced from around 20th August onwards.

Up to 25th March 2021 there are 3 weekly flights to MCO from LGW and daily flights from LHR. Currently there are 2 daily from LGW and 1 daily from LHR from the 26th March in the schedule, expect these flights to change to at least 1x daily from LGW and 1x daily from LHR sometime soon.

Shorthaul currently due to restart 9th November from LGW.

See my answer #32 just above which might give you an idea of a time frame for possible BA cancellations.

Hopefully we'll both get cancelled and either get a refund or a voucher

It's also worth checking the Tampa Airport site regularly which lists the current non-stop flights, LGW to Tampa is showing a possible start date of the 1st of October but I just can't see that happening, we due to fly on the 5th but like many others won't be going.

Until the US opens up all its airports to international visitors and the FCO changes its advice nobody knows which flights will be cancelled.The flights that BA have cancelled in future are due to changes to their schedule. At the moment all other flights are scheduled to operate but if travel advice does not change then expect cancellations nearer the time.
