Can I just check if you'd like to be added to the wiki for your flights or not please? (and if so, which flights?) Thanks, ignore if it was simply a comment to the poster only.
Wiki updated for the 17th Aug. (the A350 in flight)...
Anyone else wish to join in the MADness?

I'll add myself to the wiki. EDIT: Actually there's no lists anymore, so I won't.
(Sorry @BotB you might have to change the graphics for that one, I'm not a GGL, just a lowly Gold
)

Same here, and that opened up RFS seats on the return. I got assigned 1A automatically on the way back

i got a seat move notification from ba rather than a type change notification. I think we were in 1a & c before and presumably with the change we were initially assigned other seats prompting the email. If you ended up with the same seats on the a350 you wouldn’t get anything.
i also had an EF alert set up for a type change but that hasn’t picked it up yet.

please PM if anyone can guest 1, 2, or all 3 of us into the GCL?
we each have BA Gold cards but nothing beyond that...
we're crazy Americans who have flown yyz-tpa-iah-scl-eze-gru-gig-gru-bog-yyz-ewr-yyz-zrh-led-dme in the last 6 days. we don't know how we are getting to LHR tomorrow. hopefully not direct
In a lounge or onboard, ask us about the last party plane/meet up we were on.... and the subsequent consequences.
PS;: can someone print up or at least bring enough blank stickers/name tags in case anyone wants to list their FT username?

Following the post upthread I checked and saw the confirmed A350 equipment so moved to 3A.
Eagle has landed! XWBA just been towed onto stand prior to working today's 464/5 rotation. Can't wait

I am in 1A on the outbound and 3K on the return if you want to come say hello,
Unfortunately I have given my CCR guest spot out already or would have been happy to guest.
