BA seating plan in World Traveller Plus shows no availability

orlandoN21 · 13 Feb 19, 11:44 AM

Check in begins in less than an hour for my flight to Orlando tomorrow. Just looked at the plan to see what seats are available and they're all crossed out. Is this because of check in soon... or are there literally no seats in that section? In the past I've always pre-booked my seat.

It’s probably because BA have allocated seats as check in is soon. A couple of years ago we didn’t prebook our seats when flying home in WT+ as it’s a small cabin and we were upgraded to Club World foc at check-in. It may not be the case here as we were unable to online check-in but you never know. I guess you’ll find out when online check-in opens soon.

I don't believe it... there was only one seat left. Well at least it's in row 11 at the very front of WT+... so no reclining seat in front of me...lol

No recliner in front is definitely a bonus. I had my fingers crossed you were getting a free upgrade. On the plus side you’re off on holiday tomorrow, hope you have a great holiday.

Aaah thank you. Did twilight check-in at 4pm and she said that was the only seat available.

Now chilling out at the Premier Inn at the North terminal.

I’m surprised that it’s full, we’ve just got back and on both flights there were around 12 seats empty in WT+. On the return flight the lady in front of me reclined and I still had loads of room.😀

Its half term in some places do that could effect availability. There might even be a conference taking place with a few UK delegates, you never know.

Good point, I forget about school holidays now that my kids have left school.😀
