No problem with availability at all, so you should also be able to upgrade.
I'm not sure if the upgrade chances will be bad, but I'm not sure how familiar the TG staff at FRA will be with the UK-issued upgrade vouchers, so I feel I may need some
"leverage".
Between LH and TG, I get it as 60 F-seats a day, which looks good, however I'm aware that SENs using their e-upgrades can confirm in advance, whilst I'm only a
standby upgrade with my *A vouchers, so I'm expecting LH may be a little more problematic. Also, our last flight was LH YVR-FRA in paid F, and I'm afraid they managed to rub my partner up the wrong way, so she's put her foot down and said she would prefer not to fly F on LH again (though given the choice between UA and LH, I know she'd still jump at LH!).
I'm also aware that on routes with thin F traffic, upgrades can be difficult to come by if they've decided not to load much catering for F, hopefully this doesn't apply to FRA!
All answers to this (and my other) questions greatfully received!
