Just watching one of them in the lineup (can't see the reg from the first lounge) and it's distinctly whiter than every other BA plane near it - and I've seen quite a few skip past it in the queue.
Or maybe one of them has just been cleaned recently?

So you may notice some of the older planes also in this new brighter white.
The paint used is actually called (as a shade) Brilliant Arctic White........... which seems very appropriate for BA!
