On July 17, 2024, hundreds of passengers reported outages on the app and website, leaving them unable to login to key services.

One person wrote on the social media platform: “App not working, desktop login requests going round in circles and clearly hundreds of others having the same issue…”

The user uploaded a graph along with their post, showing increased searches for outages on the airline’s platforms.

In a response, British Airways said: “We’re aware some customers are experiencing issues with our website and the BA App.

“We’re looking into this and expect to have it resolved.”

Other customers also message the airline on X to vent their frustration, with one simply stating: “Am I the only one who can’t log in to their British Airways Execustive Club account today?

“Seriously, their IT system is really not fit for purpose.”

Another person wrote: “I’m having terrible problems with your website as it is impossible to log in!

“Constant error messages across multiple error messages.”

It is not yet known how many passengers have been impacted by the outage and when it will be resolved.
