A350 to Dubai changed to 787-9

[akhilstyle]

Hi,

I have some flights in club world booked early June to Dubai. When I booked them a while back they were scheduled in club suite on an a350 both ways. I have just noticed that this has changed to a 787-9 and there is only 1 flight available each way.

Has anyone else noticed this or is there a reason the a350 has been switched out?

Thanks
Akhil

Flight too short for the A350’s large Club cabin is my guess.

Just BA optimizing schedules and equipment. Nothing out of ordinary, especially with the ramp up. And I can imagine A350 is too big for summer in Dubai, I’m sure other routes are more popular in these months.

I have paid for CW A350 seats for September specifically for the special BA DP deal, do I get to change and ask for a seat refund if they change to another plane

A change of plane type is not a ground for cancellation of the ticket.

Details of when you can ask for a refund of seat fees are here
