Lhr to Gig no first??
So seems BA have changed planes for the rio routes next year (777 to 787-8)
am so disappointed as had first booked for the 777 for honeymoon but now been "downgraded" to CW as no first on the plane.
why oh why couldnt it be a 787-9 😢😢😢

Was it a revenue or avios booking?
If revenue you could ask them to move you to LHR-GRU in F connecting onto TAM.
Not sure if they'll do that for an avios booking - well they would but you may have to pay the extra for the connection to Rio. Worth asking anyway.

If you're happy enough with CW then no biggie. You will of course get a refund of the avios difference but you'll have to ask for it.

Potentially, although given he's paid with a 241 and we know BA puts up a fight about how much comp to give for those even when the downgrade is clearly within the 14 days, it's probably not worth the bother.
