• I was booked in QSuites business for a flight in June, but the B777 has now been swapped out for the A380.

  • My understanding is that within a status band, the priority is according to how early you place your request - so for example, of all the platinum FFs that request a seat, the priority will be assigned in order of request date.  

  • Ps I think 5A is the bassinet seat, perhaps this was why it wouldn't let me select it.
