On BA they crew do not know if you are on a reward ticket or if you have used miles or a voucher to upgrade.

They do kow if you have been bumped up due to over selling.

Ah, so you could theoretically upgrade twice (since they didn't know you upgraded the first time)? I mean that you could do an award upgrade ahead of time, and then the paid inflight upgrade on top of that? (My understanding -- correct me if I'm wrong -- is that each upgrade can only be used to take you up one class, so this trick would seem to be a way to upgrade two classes, tho of course only if each is available at their separate times.)
