Unlike US carriers (and EK apparenty) who choose the sardine approach, thus somewhat devaluing the product.

You may be able to purchase an upgrade but this will depend on space being available on the day. LAS route is very busy so may not be possible.
Fair enough. I'll just keep an eye on the availability and see if anything opens up due to a cancellation or something. I'm not desperate to upgrade, just wondered if it was possible; I'm sure the CW product will be more than sufficient. I'll book an F award ticket at some point, I'm sure; I've got to find a use for all these Avios from the LTSBPDA promo!
