But it was ever thus - nearly all those passengers will be connecting into something longhaul at LHR, in J or above.

Just that before you couldn't see it.

Sitting there is to be avoided, even if one has to pay a seat selection fee. On Easyjet, for example, the last row seats are about 5cm narrower than the other seats on the aircraft. If BA has seats that far back in any higher density layouts, this applies to them too.
The window seats in row 32 look like torture

I suspect the Lufthansa approach of keeping the J overhead bins closed won't work against wily Britons.

Indeed, how BA must be laughing...As suggested, why not charge a fortune for something that used to be pretty standard for 120 pounds return...Oh how we forget so quickly...

On BA1305 1/4 ABZ-LHR there were 10 rows of CE but the divider was at row 8 and not moved. Rows 9 and 10 were not set up as CE and got BoB service !
