Mine is VS0027 outbound and VS0016 Inbound. Not sure if that’s the same as yours?

No I was on the VS15. Seems like they’ve seated all the 3 flights on to the VS91 so far. Assume they are trying to work out what to do with the excess economy passengers so far!

I’ll keep looking. Hopefully they’ll have no room for us and we can cancel and get a refund 🤞🏻

Just a quick note which may help.

When our flights moved from LGW to LHR they had allocated seats but I was unable to move them as the seat map was blocked out - so it looked like it was fully booked. However, if I did a dummy booking for the same flight I could see there were plenty of seats available.

I left it a couple of days and then when I logged in to my booking the seat map had "opened" and I was able to select the seats I wanted.

So I would suggest to wait a bit and then log back in later or over the next few days and Im sure the same will happen and the seat map will open for you.

That makes sense.
My flight to Vegas has always been from Heathrow but have noticed in the last 24 hours that more seats are blocked up .
Luckily mine are still where I booked them

Mine has changed too flying the 9th October however I checked my VH booking and the form to rebook has appeared so sent that in as we want to go next year instead.

I expect the process is a nightmare. It was bad enough when they emerged two flights into one without restrictions.
Now they have to ensure passengers aren't bumped down if possible and maintain a space ( how that works is unknown) and please everyone.

Some passengers wont want to fly so that may given them some breathing space and flexibility.

I think a seat is a seat at this moment in time

We now have had our flight change confirmed, moved from exit row to two random seats despite the exit row on both sides being available, I guess we have to join the other 100's trying to get through to sort out their incompetence .

Now our flight is Heathrow - VS0091 and VS0092 - but same seats. Not sure how that will pan out as return flights were in the bubble. I’ll keep checking

Same here, moved from the exit row we paid for into 2 random seats far apart, only seats showing as available are the exit row but it wants to charge me £79 each to move back into the seats I paid for!

may give them a ring
