It is only me travelling on my own so I am surprised by this. Had to select 5C instead as all the 3AC and 4AC were full.

Is 2A/2B reserved for babies or Prems or is ba.com just acting up ?
BA.com is acting up and I suspect beyond this there is a bug in the setup for certain customers. I frequently had this issue as a Gold and the problem seemed to clear at T-72. However ironically now I am silver I have much more seating choice. After today's shenanigans it will be a cold day in hell before I ever fly with BA to MAD again.
