BA 274 29th October
Hi, first time poster, so I hope I'm in the right place!
I'm travelling on BA 275 in Thursday 29th October from LHR to LAS in WTP, and on BA 274 return on the Wednesday 4th November.
I have paid for a window seat, and was wondering what the seat plans were looking like for those flights.
Many thanks!

Yes, when I asked for the window seat option, there was only one on the outbound, 14K, and a choice of 13K or 14K on the inbound. I went with 14K both ways.
Mainly curious to know if 14J is occupied on the way out, although it now looks like WTP is full coming back. I keep trying the MFU option on MMB for the inbound, to no avail.

Should I pay to reserve my seats? BA0085 30/10
Hello
Very new here so sorry if I waffle on a bit... I was wondering if anyone could advise on how full BA0085 to YVR on 30 October is, particularly in WT?
I have had a look on Seat Counter and it looks like there is reasonable availability, but I am not 100% sure how to interpret the figures, so any further help would be much appreciated.
Basically, Mr Mand and I (both blues) would like to get one of the pairs of seats in rows 51 or 52 at OLCI T-24. We've never had a problem getting these in the past, but with the new 'pay to pre-assign your seat' policy, I am not so sure if I should chance waiting till -24? I'd rather not be in a row of 3 seats if I can avoid it.
We are returning on BA0084 on 5 November, bought WT+ tickets and MFU'ed to CW. Although we have flown CE before, this will be our very first CW flight, so we are massively looking forward to it. This probably sounds like nothing to most of the people on these boards who spend their lives in J and F, but a it's a big deal for us. I've read the CW guide sticky in anticipation
Sorry this is a bit of a long one - any advice would be appreciated. I am not normally that fussed about seats etc, but as this will be for our honeymoon I would like this trip to go as well as possible.
Thanks!

Spend your money on a nice meal with Mr Mand. Plenty of unassigned seats on your outbound flight at the moment...

If the particular seats are important, pay now and be sure. Others may find the limited 2's attractive.
Odds are good however that you can claim an aisle and window on check-in with the middle seat free. But no guaranty there.
