No boarding signs, no gauges, no announcements except "please board the waiting bus" and nary a yellow tag to be seen...
On-time departure though and the middle seat next to me was unexpectedly free, so all good in the end
And BA2965 back tonight GLA-LGW...
GLA has an interesting mix at the moment: old single sizers at check-in, and the same again in the gate area, but also the new Priority Boarding signs.
Again tonight yellow tags seem to have gone extinct
Boarding announcement slightly strange as well - "Gold, Silver, OWE, Business UK" called together then General Boarding.
Inbound was late and we departed 43 mins behind schedule but a great job at the pointy end got us to the gate at Gatwick only 25 mins late. At which point BA yet again snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by keeping us standing there while they tried to find some ground staff to work the Domestic Arrivals doors
Anyway home now, showered and quickly doing this before sleeping...
Safe travels all
