Yes, BA calls it Club Exec, or at least AA does on its ticket. I was just referring to sitting in front but actually having a normal economy seat with no one sitting next to you.

POAFlyer and Mark,

Hadn't thought of that. Will have to consider it next time.

MVTM,

That's amazing. I have never gotten a call, though I have sometimes gotten an email. You must be on their VIP/TLC list, seriously.

3Cforme,

Used miles. Lots. Maybe that's the issue. Free flyers get no consideration?
