Ah... I found CE reward availability on the 464 on the 17th so I've booked that, but there's not rewards left on 465 coming back (I know I should have checked). I think I will leave it and wait until something comes up (even ET coming back would work, but too late for a GPR). It's 263 EUR one way for cash in ET which is a bit steep. Otherwise I'll cancel and forfeit my 25 GBP. Hope not though!
I'd gladly join you, fingers crossed

I'm flying back on the Sunday, currently in Flub on the 777, there was a lot of rewards availability a few days ago - keep an eye on it especially from 4am GMT onwards.

Doh! sorry about that, thanks for letting me know, must have deleted you when adding the other names and changing things around sorry! (I was actually just checking you were still with us... )
EDIT: PARTY PLANE now sorted, 22 on it currently...graphics uploaded to the wiki.
I'm going through the wiki now to see what other flights people mentioned and will update accordingly.
Calendar also updated. (to reflect past A350 flights that went but also to show the 11th morning rotation now confirmed and the next expected morning rotation of next Thursday, the 15th Aug.
Safe travels,

looking forward to the flight- although after a long day in the heat of MAD and a flight to RAK the following day I may just sleep in my suite with a glass of NF Champagne!

May you have a brilliant time on the FT party plane on Saturday and may we hear more from you once you have, great to have you with us.
I'll take this opportunity to say I have finally caught up to all of the movements today (phew) so wiki updated to this point, including the graphics (and B3rad is included in the PP graphic)...
19 days left, 24 FTers on the party plane now, 10 on the pre-party plane...care to join the MADness?

Wow 24 in J on the 10th, I was going to join but as it’s the last of my Avios stash I’m going hang on for a more substantial trip than a B2B, as fun as it would be.
God help BA if they have to do an last minute aircraft swap to an A321

You might end up only forfeiting £0.50.
I also had only one avios one way booking (15k avios + £25) for MAD A350 flight, which I had to cancel.
To my surprise, when I went to cancel it, cancellation fee was shown as £0.50, and £24.50 was refunded to my card.
