Booked on BA718 from LHR to ZRH. I always take an aisle, so AA agent gave me 2A and said it was both a window and aisle because the configuration is 1-2-1. This doesn't make sense for a narrow body like an A321 so I asked her to double check. She said yes, it's 1-2-1.
I called BA and gave them my reservation number to check, and the agent confirmed that this flight is on an A321 and the seating in first class (Club Europe) is 1-2-1 on this aircraft.
Seatguru shows it as the usual intra-European seating for other BA narrow body flights, which is 3-3 with the center seats blocked out.
Does anyone have an idea what's up?
You are traveling on a Mid-Haul Airbus A321, which does have this odd seating arrangement. The cabin you are traveling in is not First Class, but our European Business class which you correctly called Club Europe. This aircraft would not normally be on the LHR-ZRH route so consider it a lovely little bonus.
