I fed this back to the BA Crew (who had already noted this each weekend on their flight reports) and to the SOU's Ops Director and he said he was not aware of this.
But in his favour, he did say he would take it up with the Handling Agents as a matter of importance.

Do we have 2 sets of steps on the BACF's this summer?


Best R.
BACF doesn’t require a second set of steps during fuelling so long as slide deployment areas are clear of obstructions. A SOU rule, perhaps?
