I'm sure all the regulars know this, but I didn't see it in the stickies.

You can edit and then bookmark the following link if you want an easy way to go to your reservation record, e.g. to keep checking if your favorite seat has become available (only useful if you have the status to select seats):

"http://www.ba.com/mmb/3?bookingRef=XXXXXX&lastname=YYYY"

(I put quotes around the above url to prevent Flyertalk from turning it into a link; of course, it won't work until modified.)

Ba.com changes the URL showing in the browser, so bookmarking the page when the reservation is displayed won't work. You will have to create this bookmark manually under "organize favorites" (IE), "organize bookmarks" (Firefox), etc..
