British Airways

Anyone searching for the best airline deals is now be able to hold their British Airways flight for up to 72 hours for as little as £5 through ba.com. This will give customers the time to make sure they're happy with their flight choices before paying for them.

If customers want to pay for their flights before the 72 hours runs out, the hold deposit is refunded and the ticket can be bought. Holding reservations per person on short-haul flights costs just £5, while those wanting to secure seats on long-haul flights will pay £10 per person.
