Hi all
I am looking at travelling to the states later this year taking advantage of the ex-dub fare sale. However I don't live in Ireland so will have to position there first.
For reasons I won't bore you with I can't pop over to Dublin the night before (which would be the sensible option) so I will have to get to Heathrow and do a back to back . Obviously this can't be done with luggage, so I wonder if it would be possible to turn up at Heathrow first thing, check in for the VS sector and drop bag (before having taken the DUB-LHR flight!). Then nip over to T5 and do the B2B on BA. This way it won't matter if the LHR<>DUB plane is delayed, as I would already be checked in for the next flight and covered as DUB>LHR>USA is on one ticket.
Cheers
