It makes a big difference

Under the current rules, the gold guarantee can only be used when the aeroplane is completely sold out. e.g. if there is 1 seat available in F, but none in economy or business or discount 1st , the benefit can not be used; the customer will need to buy a 1st class ticket ( or of course book on another flight/airline )

With this change, from how I read it, the gold benefit for a guaranteed economy seat can now be used whenever economy is sold out; it doesnt require business and 1st to be sold out too
