Seat selection on BMI operated BA flights
Having mixed luck with preassigned seats on BD operated BA numbered flights.
Seats chosen through MMB, at check in (no OLCI) often different seat assigned. Is this other peoples experience as well - or should I worry

I had this experience as well, and it was certainly not an equipment change at all.
I should add, bmi staff at MAN were excellent and outshone the BA (Menzies) employee who rudely told me I was at the wrong desk when I arrived to check-in - I had not realised the check-in at MAN was separate for BA flights operated by bmi.
Lounge was also excellent compared to the BA lounge that I always find a bit of a greenhouse. Sadly, I was told it too was to be closed.

Always happens on DME flights with or without equipment change. Though they do block the seat next to you if space, so when on own in business it's quite pleasant.
