Change to BA pre paid seat charges (it appears)

[2Tiggies]

Must be new and not sure if anyone has come across this but I logged into my BA flight to see what seat choices are available. Still considering paying for a seat to pre select. It used to be £28 per seat for each long haul single journey. I see today the seat map has a new look and prices are £26 for the centre aisle seats and £30 for the seat groups on the sides of the plane (ABC/GHI). Thought this interesting. It's quite clever really as it makes it look like they have dropped the price, yet if you consider that 2/3 of the seating falls into the higher price bracket, they can make a bit more money from the majority of seat-picky passengers
