Thanks for the input CWS but I'm not sure that is correct, unless I have misunderstood your point.

I have now booked four flights, all on A320 family aircraft, since my last post. On each occasion, despite there being an infant in the booking, the seat map shows pretty much open availability (like there are only 9 blocked seats on a 320). The seat map doesn't, however, block seats where there isn't an additional oxygen mask above. Rather frustratingly it shows all seats as open but when you click to select a seat (which doesn't have the additional oxygen mask above) you are presented with an error message and told to call BA. I am surprised that FLY (if this is operated by FLY) can't auto block seats where there is no oxygen mask above. Of course, I am presuming that there is commonality as to where the additional oxygen mask appears.
