Will you be joining us on the flight or will you already be in France?

Johnosan and ropmot141 - Great! I will add you to the list at the top of the thread! Really, pleased the response this has generated. I think we will all be welcome of some winter sun in November!
At this rate, most of us in Club Europe that day will be FT'ers. ^
You weren't missing much in the cabin on the way out, there was very little left in terms of pre-selection.
Currently I am in 3A both ways with Pyeinthesky alongside.
OLCI will certainly be interesting. I don't think there will be any problems in getting into the FIRST lounge - there seem more than enough Gold card holders/Emeralds to go around!

Here's the current availability (on expertflyer.com):
LGW-NCE BA8131 J5 C3 D3 I3 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 R9 V0 N0 L9 S9 Q9 O9
NCE-LGW BA8136 J9 C9 D9 I9 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 R9 V9 N9 L9 S9 Q9 O9
As has been discussed before elsewhere, expertflyer tends to show the US availability. Therefore, if ba.com is no longer offering the fare, it would be worth checking out aa.com. Alternatively, wait a few days. With economy wide open, they might move the curtain back.
Sadly, I won't be able to make it out to Nice that weekend
. I'm off to Geneva. ^

Regrettably, we have reached our limit for pre-allocation of seats on this flight.
Your seat will be allocated at airport check-in.
Never mind chaps...I'll get by!
Oh...forgot to mention...I'm coming along as well.
