What happen if I book for example CDG-HND as a return ticket in premium economy. Because the segment CDG-LHR doesn't have a premium economy, so the fare class for that segment is K. However the LHR-HND and HND-LHR fare class is T (which is upgradable for british airways according to
https://www.asiamiles.com/am/en/redeem/charts).
In that case is the ticket considered mixed class and cannot be upgraded? It seems a bit stupid since it's impossible to book a non mixed class on that trip.
That also applies for CX and KA own flights, not just BA. I guess they figure nobody wants to upgrade a regional or short haul to business and pay for the economy to business upgrade for the entire region/short haul + long haul journey anyway. Or they feel it is too complicated to publish a chart for it.
Anyway, I think K on BA is not upgradable.
