Q&A: British Airways - Missing middle seat on A320

info@businesstraveller.com (Business Traveller Magazine) — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 13:13:00 GMT

I am trying to determine which seats to select on an upcoming BA A320 flight from LHR to VIE. I am in a party of 2. On another seating site, seatexpert.com, on the A320 seat map, it says "Also note that the middle seat on the row immediately behind the movable divider is never sold." Is this true? On my BA.com seat map, the B seat in the first row behind Club Europe is not shown, but the seat on the right of the aisle behind the divider, seat E, is shown as being available. So is seatexpert.com or the BA seat availability map correct, or is there no set arrangement? I appreciate your help with this matter.
