Do British Airways seat you together?

While we will try to seat your group together, we cannot always guarantee it, particularly if your group travel is split across separate bookings. To ensure your group is seated together, or if you would like specific seats, you can pay to reserve your seats in advance (for groups booked in the UK and Ireland only).
