I’ve seen a few TAs on FT mention they upgrade into normal A. I can’t imagine they would be doing it regularly if it created some massive issue for rebooking post schedule change as this isn’t exactly some edge case. Anyway, I also have a backup itinerary with both TATLs on BA metal that still have A space. But the ticket is just stuck in some mysterious queue somewhere.
It creates a massive issue for voluntary changes to flexible corporate fares after a GUF is applied, because BA then re-fare the ticket using published fares, not the original corporate fare.
