Hi,

For starters, I would imagine thant once demand picks up , First availability will be reduced considerably due to;

(1) The retirement of all the 747s ( 14 F in each)
(2) The reconfiguration of many 777s with the reduction in F from 14 to 8
(3) A350s coming online with no F currently.

BA may also decide to hold back from releasing F inventory for Avios until closer to departure to see how the F loads are.

Regards

TBS
