I guess that's why they've increased the capacity.

PS Was an A321 when I flew it.

So a Bronze member can pay for a seat in First, but a silver member doesn't get the option so has to sit in CW? Very strange, guess this will take a while to sort itself out in the BA systems.

What I'm getting as a Bronze is, it'll show the prices but every seat is greyed out so you are unable to pay for a seat even if you wanted to. I've done dummy booking on a few of the 777 flights and F has been greyed out on every flight.

I got one too for a trip I build where most longer segments are with Long haul aircraft: FRA-MAD-GRX-MAD-LHR-HEL-TLL-HEL-LHR-FRA: 1 B777, 1 B787, 2 A350
Now I can not select any seat yet but seems 10A is pre-selected
