I believe British Airways feels it's more important to maintain the

fill them up the unsold ones with, say, the highest status frequent

'As most American airlines would do'.


NO, they would not.
Most US airlines do not normally give away international upgrades without
some kind of payment, unless Y is oversold.

Don't any of you people fly?

Commercial? Only if I have to. GA? Any time I possibly can.
