I am travelling tomorrow on staff travel with my friend (who works for BA).

She has asked me to OLCI tonight - apparently since its a confirmed bookable ticket you can do that. However, I've just checked MMB and it's showing as WT. She has J priority and is (so she tells me) top of the staff travel list for the flight in terms of priority and there is plenty of room in J.

Not done this before (have only travelled standby with her) and she is away today - so am wondering whether I have to OLCI into WT and then see at the airport tomorrow about upgrading or if the booking will at some point change to CW before OLCI opens?

All a bit confusing!!
