They have (at least) one already, according to BApilotinsider, scheduled for maiden passenger flight on Thursday: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/29615374-post2042.html
BAFT being what it is, I'm sure we won't have to wait long for someone to report back.

Off topic, but is there a defined moment when an airline officially takes ownership/responsibility? Do BA send a flight crew over to Airbus/Boeing and collect at the factory as it were, or does it get transferred to BA once it reaches LHR, having been flown there by the manufacturer?

Ah, thanks for the correction, I was a little ahead of myself obviously. My next flights are via LGW, so I'll not be on her anytime soon anyway!

I'll have a search myself as well.(And when they do collect it, do Airbus try and upsell the crew on all sorts of extras - stone chip guard, puncture insurance etc
)

My FT searching skills are clearly on the blink (I blame the new forum style) but I found this from BA.com: British Airways - BRITISH AIRWAYS TO WELCOME 25TH DREAMLINER

Miss GLABA and I are due to be on it on Thursday, BA0868 LHR to BUD.
pretty excited, never been on such a new plane.
Down in row 11. Happy to report back if nobody else has by then.

Travelled from Lisbon to LHR on this tonight. Row 1 was not very different from other LHR A320s. But no centre seat table (just opened up the middle seat table) or video screen. And life jackets have clip fastenings. Did not see the back half of the aircraft with slimline seats.
