A350 is currently flying to IAD however the summer schedule (obviously/likely subject to change) shows a return to two daily flights with a 777 (no F) operating 216/217 and a 789 (with F) operating 292/293.

Except on the days I'm booked on that route in July, which will see a 777 with 14F and a 787-10 in addition to the 789 rotation. So good luck to anyone trying to make any sense of things!

From what I can see, as of the summer timetable which comes in from Sunday 28th, the A350 is scheduled to be operating to:
- Bangalore
- Las Vegas
- Phoenix
- Sao Paulo/Buenos Aires
Doesn't seem like too many destinations initially. Especially as Las Vegas, Phoenix and Sao Paulo/Buenos Aires likely won't operate at all. I'm led to believe Bangalore is currently a freighter flight. Of course, I could have missed a few destinations that have popped up that weren't expected.
Many of the current A350 destinations appear to be going over to the 787/777 for the summer.

Thanks!

Annoyingly, dont plan a route based on aircraft type - things are totally unknown more than a few weeks ahead at present. Youll end up disappointed

Use ITA Matrix, pop in all of BA's routes and then filter by aircraft type.
Just be prepared for plenty of schedule and equipment changes this year!

A350 LHR to MCO
I just booked 4 x CW seats from LHR to MCO for August 2022. Having done the same trip a few years ago, I was expecting to fly from LGW on an old 777, so I was surprised to see a flight from LHR on an A350.
I'm really hoping there isn't an aircraft change (I realise it's a long way off, so a change is not unlikely) as I would love to try the Club Suite. Fingers crossed.

Good luck. Did you manage to also book the A350 on the return flight?

Yes - CW return in the recent sale. LCA-LHR-MCO on 27th April and MCO-LHR-LCA on 26th/27th May. A350 both ways. Now, if only it had been the B787 on the LCA leg instead of the A320 but hey, plenty of time for things to change.
