Do they realize these are just normal repainted planes in the old style liveries, not the old original BOAC B747-100s we used to fly on? I guess there is also the "I was there" factor about the BA 100th Anniversary although they never boarded the old planes.
I am confused as to your reasoning for wanting to fly these flights, if not to say ’you did it’? Are you suggesting that nobody should book these until those over 80 have done so at the cheaper rates so those younger people have to pay more?
