Thanks, good to know. Though the Avios/TPs have posted for Y, despite being ticketed in F and (eventually) flying in F. I'm not entirely surprised, I did receive the priority you both mention to get back into F, but somewhere in the AA system they have treated it as an upgrade and the BP showed class X. ORC request coming, let's see what happens.
