Forums Frequent flyer programs British Airways Club Two 241, different classes on same leg?

  • 16 posts

    Hi All, I am in a bit of a fix. Is it possible to do a 4 person booking with 241s where 2 seats are in one class and 2 in another? For context – I plan to extend two imminently expiring 241 via getting a FTV. Then want to make a booking of 4 people – two adults, two kids. Youngest is not old enough to sit in a business seat unless the layout means they are directly next and close enough to be holding hands with a parent – which it doesn’t look like is possible on routes we’d fly and wouldn’t be guaranteed if plane changed anyway. Therefore can’t really do 4 business seats. Ideas to solve this welcome! Otherwise it will just be economy plus redemption I guess.

    What exactly do you want to do – have one adult plus one child in J and the other parent and child in PE or Y? Your problem with this is that it would be 2 separate bookings and this won’t be possible if both 241s belong to the same person.

    What business seats are you looking at? In CE you’d be able to hold hands across the middle seat, and in CW you would have the option of a middle pair (or Club Suite) which would do the same job. Not 100% sure what you’re trying to do though!

    Thank you, sorry for not being clear. Exactly that – one adult with one child in business, one with other in PE. Sounds like it won’t work as they will be separate bookings. The ideal would be CW, to Chicago most likely. At least when I last looked the layouts didn’t look suitable, the youngest is only 2 so too old for lap, but young enough that I suspect they will struggle with a flight where they’re not extremely close to a parent at takeoff or landing. Bit of a lockdown baby so not flown yet – different to the older one who had several long distance flights before they were 2y old!
