Nice to be described as Heathrow Elite

Maybe I’m wrong but my impression from flying from both Heathrow and Gatwick is that there are many more empty CW and WT+ seats on a route like MCO than there are on most Heathrow routes. You could also put it on the New York route which I believe is priced below Heathrow usually and then move overflow CW and WT+ pax to Heathrow flights.

it just seems that some Gatters routes, not all, might be a good fit for a plane that has less premium seats...
