I guess the policy is one of the main reasons I retain silver

I wouldn't want to fly BA without silver status

if I broke free I would gladly try out other airlines with free selection

You could argue that The cost of maintaing status outweighs any seat cost!

interstingly when flying Austrian last year as non status only one seat was avsilable in their ‘CE’ cabin . I ramg up to enquire and it looked like most of the cabin was reserved for status passenges . The agent did however allocate my request
