If planes with the GF cabin are still being flown, but marketed as Polaris Business, then those seats would become the bonus ones, like the old US Airways A330 had. Originally they flew them as 3 class birds, but after a while they stopped marketing FC. So anyone who booked business and selected a row 1 seat, got a bonus in having a lie flat, version barcalounger.

As of 6/19 you can no longer purchase a ticket and you can no longer use a GPU. It is Polaris service with a nicer seat.
