Well, that would of course be rather lovely, BUT when #BA100 tried to run 3 (domestic) 747 flights on 25 AUG to celebrate the date Greta's Gang, & the Climate Change lot seemingly press ganged BA into flight-shaming, and the 3 flights using all 3 retro 747's were canned...
BA won't admit it but that's the case - Thank you to that t**t Simon Calder for heading up the Rebellion Lot to the notice in his Travel article of running the GLA,MAN & NCL flights would be bad for the climate...Dick!

So, I doubt now that BA would entertain any such flights - Ian Allan used to be the ones who arranged such jollies.

I suppose anyone could charter a plane and try to sell the seats if you have the right contacts and are prepared to underwrite the costs - I would imagine it would be a sell out PDQ.

Now, there's a thought, where's my phone?
