Talking Want to upgrade your seat?
Sorry in advance if this has been posted before, but I had a feeling that the banner ad at the top of the BA forum would under-deliver against the stated promise. But it really is quite funny.

Product seems quite a good idea though. Even if the banner ad does imply an upgrade in the context that most FT'ers feel is an "upgrade"

I wouldn't want to be using one in the unlikely event the pilot has to shout "Brace". Could hinder an evac too.
