You need to pay more attention to what I say, you could learn a lot from me.

I was looking at 5K photos and the 'extra stowage' on the BA source is a shelf I think above and to the right of the seat but I am a mere amatuer and the BA professional here is Can i help you who might expand on that please?
So Far only 2 F flights both 777. One OF a few years ago and one very nice flight to JFK earlier this year.

So will be nice to see the nose of a 747 before while they still fly. And of course I wont turn down the chance on the A380 if it should present itself!

Hi just booked LHR to NRT 1st for Nov and it is showing the plane as a 777 (am assuming it's Boeing 777-200). I thought the 789 was flown on this route?

Travelling to SAN next year and it's just switched from a 777-300 to a 747

Traveling as a couple with an infant. Originally had the bassinet row. There was another couple booked and with the switch they have the bassinet now.

Whats the best option, currently have been assigned 4E/F which seems exposed. Would try for 1A/K nearer the time.

Probably a change for the winter schedule. I did a dummy booking in CW for the 1st Nov and it's a 777-200, rows 10-15 in CW.

If it's a 777-300 CW will have rows 10-16 so you can check for whatever date your going on.

Thanks for checking.^

I flew to NRT in Nov 16 and it was 789. Am hoping it's just temp down as a 777 and will change to 789 nearer the time - they're so much nicer.

Yup, I just got the EF aircraft change alert for my flights back to the U.K. For Christmas. As it was originally a 777, I had booked First to avoid CW dormitory class. If I had known it was going to be a 747 like last Christmas, I would have opted for CW upstairs for my flights. Still have UD on the 747 to cross off my bucket list. Oh well and somebody beat me to 2a and 2k on the seat map which was strange as my wife and I were in the only 2 occupied seats on the original 777 flight

1. I am in 2K for both legs? (747, 777). Is that a good choice?

Many thanks for any input!
Any idea if it's better to change the current 2K seat to 1A/K or 2A (for 747 and/or 777)?

Thanks

Any F seats to avoid on the 787-9? currently in 1E and F - normally we go for windows but lack of buddy seat means i'm inclining to middle seats.

None to be avoided but I would take 2EF over 1EF if they are available?
