I have used the upper deck airbridge twice there. I suppose they would otherwise use a high-lift from the tarmac to the upper deck?

Hi again,
I am still trying to sort out the seating for Mrs Boyfrombiot and I. I have two related questions if anyone knows the answers:-
1-Does anyone know why 61A and 61K are restricted from being booked in WTP on an A380? It is the same for any date.
2-Are the centre bulkhead seats (61DEF) bassinet positions in WTP?

Thanks in advance,
Cheers
Steve

Looking at the seat map 61AK are basinette seats, 61DEF are not.

OP. Yes definitely 61A/K are bassinet seats but I am wondering if you are talking about about the front middle row which is row 60 where D and F are also bassinet seats but E is not and is selectable (with the caveat that you may get shifted if there is a family placed there) whereas the others you get the usual cot/infant warning.

Infant seat unavailable

Sorry, we cannot place Adult 1 in a seat which has a cot position. Only an adult associated with an infant will be able to select a seat with a cot position

OP, you can try and get them from T-72 hours but no guarantee really and on one flight 61K only opened up about 5 hours before.

Here are a few older pics of mine for info.

I know most people here know more about BA's hardware than BA but calling and explaining the predicament can't hurt, I would think yours is a situation where you should be able to reserve blocked out seats if necessary.
