Buy one, get another - and pay more?

When is a BA flight not a BA flight? When it's part of a codesharing deal - and can cost you hundreds more than the next passenger.

I recently travelled to Havana via Madrid on a flight booked on Opodo. It cost me £411.70, a pretty good price, even it did mean flying with Iberia. I also noticed that British Airways were apparently operating services there - tempting, but at a much higher price.

So it was a bit of a surprise when I got to the gates at Heathrow and then later at Madrid to find that the flights I was boarding were also billed as BA. Having paid the lowest price I was happy enough - but what of any who thought they’d booked BA?
