Vinnmann: I'm not realy sure since I don't fly those routes often.....I just know it's hard to book award travel to Italy and from mentions on this board it seems like FC fills up a lot quicker to Italy than the LGW and CDG routes I fly, which are sometimes not full in FC. But I don't really know for sure so I should probably shut up! I do think you have a better upgrade chance as a GP on all the International routes than for domestic transcontinental--seems like you pretty much have to be CP to get those. I think the transatlantic routes defintiely have more leisure travelers so FC doesn't tend to be dominated as much by the business travel CPs.
