Can anyone advise whether it is possible that availability will open up in the next couple of days, and is there any point in calling the BA Gold line (I suspect not)? For information, the cash upgrade for the outbound leg is twice what we paid for the return tickets in WT+...
Are you flying Sunday 14th. If so you may have a chance - CW appears to be quite open: selling 9 seats in all fare buckets (note this does not mean precisely 9 seats available). It's the most open date of the week ahead; in second comes Wednesday (5 for sale in all buckets) where 1 upgrade seat is made available.
Don't think there's much point calling BA, just spend you effort checking as often as possible.
