For all your questions (and answers) regarding the best, worst, noisest, quietest seats in WT+ on the 747, 767, and 777 fleets.
Special thanks to Lobengula for allowing the use of his image of Seat 28J.
Note: 777 three class layout is not entirely representative of the latest 48J aircraft. The centre rows are in fact positioned marginally aft of the corresponding window pairs.

Reason: add seat plans
Moving on, if I pay to reserve am I able to change my selection should better seats open up in the same cabin, without further charge?
Doesn't look like you can...
Terms and conditions
Paid seating
•All paid seating is subject to availability at time of request.
•Paid seating is available on all British Airways mainline operated flights.
•Paid seating is not available on flights operated by BA Cityflyer, or those operated by any BA franchisee or alliance airline, or any flight operated by a codeshare partner.
•Paid seating is available in Euro Traveller, World Traveller, World Traveller Plus, Club World, Club Europe and Domestic cabins. Exit row seat requests are only available in our World Traveller and World Traveller Plus cabins.

Changes to seats

•In the event that we have to change your seat we will endeavour to seat you in a suitable alternative. (We will look to seat your party together in the first instance, and then if possible in your choice of window seat, middle seat or aisle seat. If you have paid for an exit row seat we will look to seat you in another exit row seat.)
•If we are unable to offer you a suitable alternative seat as set out above you are eligible to apply for a refund.
So far, the automated seating thingy has always put me in 12A automatically, unless there is an infant needing the cot. However I do always check on at the dot of T-24H, but it's rare that I can't get 12A.
Am doing SFO-LHR tomorrow so will try and get a picture of 12AB and cobble together some kind of trip report.

Leave plenty of time if you get the bus to the airport

Please can someone confirm if 28B/J can be pre-booked in the High-J config? I have a flight showing row 28 blocked out, but I'm not sure if those seats are already taken, or simply not available yet.

Yes you can but those are exit row seats. They are on sale 10 days before departure.
