Yes, I'd also be v. surprised if BA were willing dislodge paying F pax - especially those entitled to row one! However, I'd be interested to know if anyone has experience of either initiating or receiving a seat bump across other cabins.

I did briefly consider this but decided against it on moral / karma grounds! However, if I couldn't get my somewhat-more-usual 28B/J or 29A/K in WTP I'd be tempted to try my luck...
