    Option 3 seems the no-brainer - if you can quickly find a suitable replacement trip to spend the voucher on.
    The figure offered seems to be so good that it might also be a mistake by BA.
    I might be wrong but I find it hard to believe that they would give a full refund as required by law and then also give a voucher for almost £18,000 for a future holiday.

    I have to say that anybody who is in a position to consider holidays costing between £17K and £65K should probably be seeking professional legal advice, rather than relying on (maybe unqualified) strangers on an internet forum.

    I thought the same - it sounds too good to be true - is it a scam ? 
    @leoni0211 have you checked the e-mail address it comes from is definitely from BA- ( not web based like gmail/hotmail ) ?

    If they were going to suffer a loss of that amount, perhaps, but I can't see it being worthwhile here.
