As CloudGazer and Gastrocnemius have expanded on my acronym, Theoretical Seating. I was able to confirm it wasn't just random because looking at the seat maps on ExpertFlyer 64J was shown as "Blocked", i.e. couldn't be self selected. Doesn't always mean it won't get allocated to a passenger by a BA member of staff at check in (or on request), but it does limit the likelihood.

Booked direct on AA at the beginning of May. I think I saw the fare talked about either in the Premium Deals or the Tier Point Runs thread.

It’s okay. I found the answer on FT.

I'm doing a TP run to Jersey next week, thanks for reminding me about this place for which I shall shortly make a reservation.

I ate there a number of years ago and I think I paid about £70, at a time when my weekly food budget was not much more than £70, so I was a bit apprehensive when I saw the menu... but it was so good that I didn't even complain afterwards.

Thanks to the talk about Bohemia in this thread I've purchased some reward flights and will be surprising my wife on our 10th anniversary with a day trip to Jersey for lunch!
