Due to the smaller F cabins, A isn’t often released - so maybe just be content with Club at first and monitor.
Can’t comment on Avios required as unsure of route.
i wrote all that and left out the destination! Typical!
It's Tokyo, so Haneda HND. Will edit post.
if ExpertFlyer shows available booking classes, will look into a subscription around the time I'm trying to sort the booking, thanks for that.
Appreciate that if first isn't available in a way that the GUF2 can be applied to, it'd have to be Club World, but at present BA are persisting with the old CW cabin on this route, which I'm really not a fan of.
However, with over a year to go before the intended travel dates (early 2026), maybe they'll have made more progress with the Club Suite rollout.
Very much a first world problem, i know, and if it has to be the old CW cabin, such is life.
