...yes, intriguing. I had a similar plane change from MIA, but as Gold, got moved to the 4 middle seats downstairs!! Quickly changed that to row 62 upstairs.

Snap. Annoyed - chose 380 for a more comfortable night flight, particularly as I'm in WT+ so am not sure what to select as I am not familiar with the class. Gone for 12 and 13 AB but would welcome advice! Seats look OLLLLLD!

My personal choice for seats is last row aisle, and having eaten well before boarding, I close my eyes and sleep.

The last mid J is due to be refurbished at the end of December and if my calculations are correct the15 remaining ones by then will all have new seat covers etc.
9 out of those 15 will have the Panasonic IFE, new carpets, curtains and LED lighting.

As GGL my two changes ended me behind the loo in 64K.
Now in 62A.
I just don't understand how people got to the other Row 62 seats before me. I clicked on the link within seconds of arriving in my In Box.

I got back on ba208 from Mia today. These are the oldest planes on the fleet and especially WTplus has an ife that is half the size of my cell and appears to have an ega solution (to those who remember) lol.
Never the less. As said. Upper deck is the best and I was on 64k..to add...
Make sure to always check your seats.
I have opened a thread about this. I got kicked out of my 64k seat about 30h prior of flight. App showed 19j...i could change back otherwise I had been disappointed.
Make sure you keep the upper deck abd check my check in thread about using checkpoint 2 and the flagship lounge. Enjoy
