Keep an eye on the seat map and ask at the airport.

Still blocked in F…. I expect it to open, and no concern to be shunted back as IMO all CS seats fairly equal and we don’t care where we sit..

Flub yyz-lhr
Just returned from YYZ. Booked in WTP and bracing ourselves for short red eye lack of any sleep. Got an OpUp at the gate for both of us (both gold) and ended up in FLUB 1K and 2K. Made the journey far more bearable. Interesting to note BA never opened up FLUB for booking and managed seat changes at the gate.
Side note: Anyone know what level of tier points we will get for this? Presume WTP points?

also FLUB’d on that route, landed this morning, so assume the day after you. Interestingly this FLUB had first class amenity kits and bedding, though food was Club. Previously when flub’ed the bedding and amenity were club.
was quite surprised to be flub’d given it was a reward flight with 241.

They then printed off my boarding card, and it had automatically moved me to 1K. They said that that would now stick, and that I wouldn't be moved back to my old CW seat. An excellent result.

First seats on 787-9 where no first is used
Does anyone know of the rationale/process behind the use of F seats on the 787-9 on routes where no F is sold but the physical product is available? Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I heard that on occasion these seats are assigned to Golds who have booked J seats?

I enjoyed this Privilege a few weeks ago when WTP was rammed and I was not only placed in CW, but also seated in 2K … I’m silver, full fare revenue ticket (as I was out and back in 48 hours) … lovely surprise, lovely crew, and lovely experience too !
