It will be very annoying if it reverts to the standard LGW layout as I’ve paid for seats ! Shows 56 J seats in CS but if it reverts I assume there will only be 32. It’s an Amex 2-4-1 booking so not sure if that makes me more likely to get downgraded in the event of a change - I’ll be silver by then but I don’t know if that will help.
Are you sure it's a 56J? It's more likely to be a 77L with 48J. Also as per the advice here don't get your hopes up at all. BA are likely planning to have a CS fitted airframe operating at LGW due to scheduled maintenance at the time, but changes to the seat map between now and then are very possible. If I were you I would keep a regular eye on the seat map, and once you get to 3 days before departure, check it constantly.
