As an aside, the asymmetry of upgrade availability and overall load from SFO-LHR vs. LHR-SFO is striking. Among a few coworkers regularly on this route, we have a near 100% success rate in upgrades (miles + dollars) on LHR-SFO and, all being low status, an exactly 0% success rate in reverse. When and how do all the GS and 1Ks fly back?
I got the $649 LHR - SFO on checkin last week. Return upgrades really depend on the day, almost all my Weds SFO - LHR requests clear, generally M or B fares though, far lower on Thursdays.
