    I think the multiple requests are driving BA yield to think this is going to be a busy flight and causing some flight availability changes. Looking at GDS only down to 2 C Class seats and if people have looked at same time might be why price differences are showing?

    Also having checked in a clients Exec Club area again (there are 2 ways to seach flights), 1 shows Sleeper service (if you go back to BA home page as normal customer) – but if you do it through Exec Club – Book Flights – it doesn’t show as a Sleeper Service.

    Logged in – no Sleeper Service mentioned
    Not logged in – Sleeper Service mentioned
    Same price for the flights though.

    FDoS – I’m not registered with ba.com

    But when booking as “not logged in” BA188 is described as a Sleeper Service.

    I’m using Windows 7, Google chrome, humble HP laptop.

    Thanks, Alex.

    Hi FDoS

    Same here – when logged in, nothing to suggest it is a Sleeper Service. Logged out – it is made clear.

    Almost made a booking by mistake lol.

    If you look at the info page re. sleeper service it lists 118 and 186, there’s no mention of 188.

    There is another page that lists BA186 and BA188, just to add to the fun and the general view is that the page you are viewing has a typo, since BA118 is a flight from India and therefore should read BA188.

    Prufeshunal, eh?

    When logged in, I get no indication in the About Your Flights section that it is a Sleeper Service.

    Interestingly, I’ve had a different account specific (it seems) issue when booking packages. In the past, I booked flight and car hire packages which, while logged into my BAEC, very clearly indicated a few thousand bonus avios would come my way for booking them together. Having completed my travel with no sign of said Avios, I contacted BAEC, only to be told that it is only valid for accounts registered in the UK or US – yet it came up while my account was registered in a different EU country! Go figure!

    Thanks, Str8Taling.

    It seems the majority of people get different info, when logged in.

    That’s been a very helpful exercise.

    Troooly prufeshonal – surely if it’s a typo it could be corrected in a time scale that doesn’t include the word aeon. If you see info on one page you hardly then think to look for it on another just to make sure it’s correct – do you?

    No you don’t, a point I made on another post when it was being suggested I was at fault for believing the page you quote.

    @Tim – could this exercise really have an affect on the prices for these tickets. There are 10 – 15 people who have run this exercise… surely ticket prices should be more stable…..
