Thanks to FT all that is going to change ^ . Now when I turn up in a Hawiian shirt and shorts in the CW queue I might get some attention
.
Thing is I did get the wrong sort of attention at BOS, admittedly not looking my best, but you should give everyone the benefit of the doubt.
So whilst approaching the NCW check in queue (which was empty), a bloke standing behind one of the desks started talking to me.
Him: "Excuse me sir, do you want to ask a question?"
Me: Yes I did I asked "is this the Club check in area?"
Him: "Yes it is Sir"
Me: "Good, I'm in the right place then"
I reached the desk to discover that he isn't BA staff at all, (I think he was a handling agent) but the girl behind the other desk who was a BA staffer, said to "ignore him" and then welcomed me to Logan & BA.
She was very nice to me, asking if I really wanted the seat I was in (60A), as she could move me as it was very early, found a much better seat was available ^ . She may just have sugaring the pill, however before telling me that there was no food (drinks/washkits etc.) on the flight.
My mum coming back two weeks later in WT was given a seat away from Dad initially, which they corrected at check in. Got on the flight and there was someone in her seat, who moved very quickly after mum pointed out it was hers, and an FA said she would have to move. Then the IFE didn't work and the light didn't work, she only wanted to read and watch a film, so the FA said I think we'll move you, which they did to WT+.
