On a separate note and very off topic (apologies but I’m bored in the IST TK domestic lounge waiting to connect on TK to ESB, already spent time upgrading my 45 min hop to J for 18£

) my flight went very well, cabin crew were super attentive.
However.
Hope the following point will not open Pandora’s box: todays BA680 surprisingly only had 3 rows of J - with 6 pax in total.
After boarding completed I still had all row 1 for myself (I love the privacy feeling when that happens, I have to admit) however shortly after doors closed and whilst taxiing 3D placed himself into 1D and 3C behind me into 2A. Cabin crew did not say anything, neither did I.
Just wondering all the fuss about blocking row 1 for Golds/GGLs and row 2 for Silvers….
