Impossible to say without kniwing the date, and difficult to say even if we did know the date. But if you were looking for a general answer, BA tends to operate on the basis of maximising revenue, bearing in mind Avios generates revenue too; and that also generally the fear of being bumped is at least ten times the actual chance.
