I have always wondered if it is worth flying EDI to LHR then re-checking in for the long haul. When doing an EDI OCLI it lets me check in for the long haul but again I wonder if it has excluded me from an upgrade as I was so efficient and checked in early!

Only Op Up was a WT+ to J from BOS when I havdn't OLCId!

In all the examples I quoted above I OLCI'd both domestic and long haul and then got both domestic and long haul BPs from the SS machines at EDI airport.

Didn't seem to affect the joyous moment when the gate BP reader spat out the BP and the gate person got busy with his pen.
