I think on my last Y long-haul I might have been skipped indeed. I was in 15G and had closed my eyes to doze off a bit, and a few minutes later I heard a FA greet the person right behind me and his family. But if FA had skipped me because I looked like I was asleep, they would've come back, no? And she didn't. Agreed on pointless/noteworthy at the same time!



The La Première upgrade is remarkable - is this common or to be expected at all in certain circumstances? Are you Ulti?
Just normal platinum !
I came over from BA on the Status Match back in Feb, which just coincided with a lot of trips to Brazil !
I don't know if this is common or rare !
