Seat reservation fees increase
Raffles writes about this issue that regularly crops up here.
No doubt some full and frank views will be expressed!
] BA CW seat reservation costs
Mod edit: to comply with rule 7, FT requires a summary so members can decide whether to click through to the blog. Here’s a pertinent extract from the HfP article:
Reserving a seat is not a particularly cheap affair. Without Executive Club status reserving a seat used to cost £60+ in Club World, and frequently more.
British Airways appears to have changed its pricing structure in recent weeks. On a Boeing 747 to New York, there are now SIX different prices available, running from £59 to £91. This is per person, each way, meaning that a couple is facing a ludicrous £364 cost to reserve upper deck seats next to each other for a return flight.
I should also point out that these are New York prices, for a 6-7 hour flight. You will pay more on longer routes.
