What a ridiculous comment. I am gold and nearly GGL who often travels in Y because there is no availability in W,J or F when buying your ticket 3 days before the flight. And those Y tickets with no Saturday layover will sometimes be over £2000, probably more than a lot of people paid for their CW tickets tickets six months earlier. There's no way BA are making a loss on me.
