Just to confirm was this AA JFK-LHR connecting to BA LHR-DUB? Or all BA JFK-LHR-DUB?

I have never upgraded a BA longhaul flight with SWU's, but I have upgraded many BA shorthaul flights connecting to/from AA at LHR (probably 10+ times since 2023 when this benefit started). Never once have they tried to charge any additional surcharge $$ for a shorthaul SWU upgrade on BA.
