BA has been said to say their premium economy cabins are their most profitable cabin. Maybe CX is bleeding money on Y+....in which case the should rip out those cabins.
If you are doing 5.5 premium econ to get gold.... I would switch to the AA programme - if you do 5.5 premium econ on an average return sector length of 12000 miles you will be Executive Platinum (emerald). You just need to somehow do the 4 AA flights!

On the BA programme if you are doing premium econ you need less than 4 return flights to make executive club silver.
