Blimey, what a dilemma!

Not actually sure what the ruling here is, bit if OF seating is available at time of booking that sort of suggests the cabin will be in use. Thus, book the best seats you can.

Despite what some wags say about 64A/K being better than the 5's and 4's, I'd take an OF seat over any CW seat. The only downside, on paper, is the utterly crap OF IFE screen which frankly is only useful for the moving map.

But I do undestand why you would fret - a bird in the hand (62's or 64's upstairs guaranteed) is maybe better than 2 in the bush (anything in OF but a risk they may not utilise the cabin on the day).

Maybe someone has stats for that.

I'm sure someone at BA is enjoying this....
