bmi Missed Connection Policy

So, I'm a bit concerned that I might miss my connection due to late take off on bmi's behalf. I took a look on flight aware and it seems that BD920 takes off QUITE late on many ocasions, some times at about 10:30am when our connecting flight takes off at 11:00am..

Both flights are operated by different airlines (VS and BD) and they are on the same itinerary.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

If you are on the same PNR then it is up to BD to resolve the problem by rescheduling you on to another flight to your destination.

The BMI flight is from where and its usual arrival time? And your onward destination?

If you are on the same PNR for both legs then BMI will be responsible for rebooking you on an alternative flight.

Hey everyone! Happy to report that BD920 (AMM-LHR) took off on time, and was (sadly) on an A320 rather than the nicer mid-haul A321s. But I was surprised of how fast the plane was turned around. BD919 docked at 4:05 and we took off at 4:35.
