Beaten to seq 1 and 2 for vs 75 april 14th!

I've been hovering on the F5 button and thought I'f got in bang on 23:59 but somebody beat me to it!

Anyway, checked in, 79a and c in the pocket.

Couple more hours work then holiday.............! y)

If the guilty party is here, will they please make themselves known.

I'm mystified by SEQ #s, how do you know?

It says it on your boarding pass Slinky. I managed to get Seq1 on both legs last year until I upgraded on the return journey!

I'll look next time, but where?

It varies depending on the carrier, but most are part of the long number on the bottom of the boarding pass.

Thanks, it's never come to my attention before ...

What if you change your home print for a nice purple card?
Do you keep your sequence number?

I have been SEQ001 only once for a European BA flight before. I think I did OLCI at T-23.59 stupidly early in the morning for an early departure the next day.

I find the SEQ number nerdily fascinating. I always look at it when I get my boarding pass as it sometimes gives an indication of how busy the flight will be.

whats this guys , or are we taking in code ?

Yes you do as its related to the order you checked in and not when your BP is printed.

I got SEQ 1 when going to EWR in February.. Until I joined this site I had no idea what it meant

No special code. We are basically talking about the boarding pass number, and getting the first number in the sequence for being the first person to check in, all a bit geeky, so please excuse us!

Could almost be the V-Flyer mantra. At least, by Mrs V's reckoning it could...

Unfortunately, not at a computer when OLCI opened, so seq no 80 & 81, not that far down the line though considering the amount of seats left on the flight is minimal.

Now in seats 45J&K if you fancy a wander down the back tomorrow Steve!

Well, I suppose I might need to stretch my legs.

Great - catch you tomorrow sometime

Checked the Senior Ponds in for tomorrow's 10:00am LGW-BGI flight this morning at exactly 10:00am and got SEQ nos.....

2 & 3.

How on earth some solitary über-nerd got in there before me beggars belief. I look forward to the challenge of having another bash at it for our flights next week.

Mrs Scrooge would agree with Mrs V, until it involves her actually getting to fly up front, then it goes from "very Geek" to "a very good way to spend your time"

Ditto Luke to that also. I am a geek, until I point out how little it is costing us to fly UC, get upgraded hotel rooms, free amenities at hotels, because of the knowledge I have learnt through V-Flyer ii)
