I wonder if they will keep WTP upstairs too, possibly with the loss of the WT cabin on the UD and I am assuming that F will stay in the forward lower deck and remain F14?

Looking forward to seeing the map when it arrives.
Theres been a number of proposals in terms of layout put forward... 1 includes First being located on the upper deck to 8F in the forward section, with the remainder being Club World. This gives the best overall increase of seats on the aircraft and personally my favourite. However, there were some costing issues to do with the First cabin refit for this to be done i heard. Another proposal is for CW only on the upper deck and the main deck to be First, WTP and WT. I believe this is the chosen design, but not officially confirmed. Refreshed seats and upgraded IFE are also in the pipeline. With any BA refits though, i'm sure some area will end up taking a cut.
