2017 POUG rate tracker
Please add your own successful results to the follow list including the month/year when the POUG was offered to you. Please delete any figures from 2017 or earlier if you have a 2018 price. Previous data lives on via post 2.
UPDATED TO: Post #418
POUGs are offered via BA.com and the App Manage My Booking via a distinctive banner (example from MMB below). You cannot get a POUG by telephoning, however the service centres can complete a POUG which falls over mid transaction. They are offered on cash and Avios redemptions but typically not on complex routings, BA Holidays or travel agency bookings until OLCI stage. POUGs on Avios redemptions won't get you additional TPs/Avios, but they will on revenue tickets.
Short haul routes from LON to/from Europe
A price in pounds indicates a ticket issued from London, other currencies indicate prices for tickets issued overseas (e.g. singles or returns originating from CDG priced in Euros). Multiple prices indicate a range of fares are on offer. Note that LCY prices currently seem to be on a different basis to LGW and LHR (cheaper, in other words).

Wed, 29th Aug LHR-LAX WT - WTP £269. Would have been cheaper booking WTP from the get go! Hoping this means they'll need to upgrade some pax at the airport, but then again, on SeatAlerts, WT is wide open.
Also, did have WTP to CW LAX - LHR for 14th Oct for £769 I think, but its dissapeared.

Cologne (CGN) to Gatwick €89 from a Basic fare.
Suspecting Club on this route won’t include lounge access or other ground benefits, but hard to know as route hasn’t started yet.
Also have a ARN-LHR - still £129.

I gather I’m unlikely to be offered a POUG on a two sector ticket DUB LHR AMS?
Also can you be offered POUGs on cash + Avios fares?

Correct (sadly). I often have bookings with connections and I am never offered POUGs on them.

So this has really got me. First time in World Traveller for a very long time, LHR-PHX on Friday. Booked WT at short notice and was offered a few days later, and accepted, a WTP upgrade outbound for GBP297. Clicked through to the final payment and an error message came up saying ''it is not possible to change this booking online, please contact our office blah blah.'' Tried again, the offer was still displaying in red at this point but when I actually clicked through to the payment the final price was now GBP1680 (!!) for a one way upgrade to WTP. At this point, with the fear of a first time in traveller for a nearly 11 hour flight, I really wanted to take the upgrade. So I called BA and spoke to a lovely lady at EC who confirmed that the seats at that price had been taken, and that the only avaliable upgrade to plus was indeed GBP1680 one way and that was because only fully flex was now avaliable. She said there was a glitch on the website that still offered the promotion when it was no longer avaliable. It remained displayed for a further four hours and then vanished. 36 hours later - guess what - an upgrade to WTP appears again for GBP297 and I nearly took it as it actually seemed to work this time and took me through to the final payment at that price. However, now a bit grumpy with BA I decided to do a dummy booking and found out that WTP is filling up with only centre seats avaliable, where as I'm in 52H an aisle seat at the back of what looks like an almost empty WT cabin - so decided to take my chances at the back of WT which looks almost empty rather than paying for a seat in a jammed WTP cabin. But it has left me wondering is this an IT glitch or BA just trying to mess with me or what?
