I traveled back home on Sunday to AUH. For week’s the flight had been sold out in F, J and W but I had a confirmed seat in W. Upon boarding my first departing flight from GLA I noticed that EF was showing F1 J1 and W1 and lo and behold even the BA app was selling tickets.

An hour later I landed in LHR and EF and the BA App were both still showing avail in J. it was 3 hours until my flight to AUH departed (22:10 departure) so thought I had enough time.

So I pick up the phone to GGL at 1920 hours to try to change my ticket from W to J using cash (it was a revenue booking in W to begin with).
