This doesnt seem to be the case.. I booked quite late on a flight ( since when I went to pre-select seats, most were full).. Then I did OLCI as soon as it opened and my sequence was 2..

hmmm.. I checked my last bp stub and the last digit in the e-tckt no is 21-1.. but I have flown them more than once ..
AFAIK, the last no 1-4 denotes the coupon no from the e-ticket .. i checked my last 2 bps .. xxx - dxb was coupon no 1 and dxb - xxx coupon 2 in the e/tckt and the same reflected in the BP as the last digits respectively..
They say welcome back if they see the skywards no in the BP IMO..
