The OP is either taking the mickey or needs to learn to relax.
I, too, am a low life blue economy flyer.
I feel like the whole HBO thing has not worked for BA. They are consistently asking people to check in their bags (in the last 10 or so flights i have been on, bar one, i have been asked to check in my bag). I have, on the other hand, been on flights that have been slightly delayed because people are trying to find somewhere to stick their hand luggage.
Its stupid. You are already checking the bags in and there are people like me that wont check them in because of meds. Just get rid of the HBO fares and keep them low?
