Does that mean a first look at the amended First cabin?

It isn't a BA A350, none of the BA A350s are anywhere near actually being built.

The draw for the twitter competition is taking place on 18 May 2015, according to the terms and conditions.

There is still some hope

That was going to be my second query!

KARFA May 14, 2015 5:51 am
I would guess it would be one of Airbus's own A350s.

Nothing for me either - and I also live within 45 minutes drive of Heathrow.

The small print said that they would being doing the draw for winning entries on 18 May.

I'm surprised that we've been invited to a Marco Polo champagne reception at Canary Wharf (despite having never flown Cathay!) but don't get invited to these things!

There was however up to three guests allowed so if you got a ticket it may have been from someone who was invited.

Either way, it wasn't a free for all.
Really, I think I had to book online, but it was a few years ago so cant really remember!

I got that today as well! See you there...

A great shame the invitations are so restricted. We had a fantastic time at the last event. My 2 small kids loved every minute. You don't get the chance now to visit the cockpit like I used to do as a child. The staff on site were amazing. The kids still pick these photos out as some of their favourites.

I've never had a problem getting my children in the cockpit (on the ground, obviously!), and if you look in the BA Twitter feed I'm sure there's a photo or two showing children in the cockpit.

I'm sure there are opportunities, but at the open day the pilots had nothing else to do other than entertain, which they were brilliant at. They weren't preparing for a flight or desperate to leave the aircraft at the end of a long shift. I'm always shy about disturbing people at work. Here we were welcomed and encouraged.

I tried to register and it kept coming up with " not recognising my membership number" so I sent an email and received the invite and today so registered and have just received my e ticket Yeah!

I received the following response when I emailed:

Dear Francismc,

I am sorry but the invitation selection is still in progress and we are unable to confirm at this stage if you will be receiving an invitation.
