To be super clear, all BA F seats are the same today apart from installation details in different aircraft which make some slightly more spacious than others and the 789 version looses the buddy seat with a fixed screen.

The '2010' version is the latest and is very likely what you've seen before.

I'd suggest the 12F config on the 772 isn't at all bad, I like the feel of the 744 myself but it's probably the least spacious of all the F cabins. None of them need to be avoided really..

The comments about the 777 being good are totally valid, but OP if you do want to 'experience' the nose it's definitely worth a call to YouFirst, if you explain how much you were looking forward to it they might have some discretion to move you to another flight - there's bound to be another that day and it's not going to be busy yet for Nov. Not guaranteed of course, but worth a shot if you do still want that.

You're not wrong there - we are right down at the bottom of the deep deep well of 'first world problems'
