Although last time we did go CW (had GFUs to use up) again 2+2 by the window which they loved, apart from a business traveler who complained loudly and vociferously to the CSD (in our earshot) as to why he'd been allocated an aisle seat in the middle section when there were children with window seats. Whilst this may be a valid concern he should have done it away from us, and not laid guilt on my children for a BA decision and/or their lack of status (i'm Gold and my wife's Silver).
What an arse. Irrespective of what you may think of children in a premium cabin, their tickets were paid for in some shape or form as I imagine op-ups for ankle-biters are rarely given. If I were the FA I would have offered him a window seat, in economy.
