You'll be able to view the timing changes to your flight at ba.com/mmb in the next 24 hours.

20.55.
I think i have made a bit of a mistake with the avios booking. Wanted to book two one-ways because I used Gold Priority Reward for the return (Y on outward) . But the phone agent somehow talked me into putting them both on the same booking.

I suggest you make a booking for the doubletree now before it fills up.

Folks, some side-exchanges that weren’t of any relevance or interest to anyone coming to this thread to find out about the BA100 flights have been removed.

i booked the DT with the flights - does that affect being able to split the booking?
What flight are you on btw?

Due to the delay in booking I’m Y both ways. Better than nothing. Just hoping for PE seats to open on the Mid-J to NCL. Also positioning from MAD the night before so hopefully A350-1000 to London and then home on the A340-600.
Not to bad. 4 Wide-body flights.
I’m sure its the same for everyone but MMB not showing Economy. Just a fully blocked PE cabin. I do have some exit window seats selected after calling to book thanks to Silver but on the return NCL-LHR very single window seat is booked! The other to NCL just lots of blocked I can’t see in MMB. Who knows......

I am in a similar position re NCL-LHR - I get fully blocked PE cabin and no choice of WT - no chance of a window seat now I suspect. Should I ring BAEC and see if they can allocate a seat (even a middle one next to the window seat). Missed the boat on seating but booked tickets yesterday as soon as released.
