But welcome to Flyertalk kassakm and welcome to the BA forum. It's great to have you here and I hope we will see more of you in the future.

yes the SCL was a shocker, they said it’s a brand new route hence the price, when I said a similar length LHR - EZE was only £149 they said they don’t dictate the price. The only reason I did it was because my partner got upgraded by mistake for free and we shared the costs of my upgrade, otherwise the price is outrageous!

LHR - FRA BA916.

£45 for ET to CE. More or less a no brainer as original ET in K class only yielded 10 TPs. extra 30 TPS at £1.50 seemed pretty reasonable

LHR-HAM ET->CE GBP 98

From today. Would have been a middle seat, for some reason (aircraft change??).

LGW - NAP (ET to CE) £125 on the 8th December. The agent mentioned it's normally cheaper than that. 1 seat in CE available according to expertflyer. I declined but got an op-up to that exact same seat whilst in the lounge!

Waiting in the queue at GC South at the customer services desk and a guy was asking for a W to J upgrade if available. He was quoted £293 (bargain!!) and he had his card swiped etc.

After a few minutes I could see the agents face drop as there seemed to be an actual glitch and it actually wasn't available when he called through. Needless to say the guy wasn't happy but he took it on the chin and walked off rather fast. One minute up there and the next minute flat as a pancake.

Actually, could one of our resident experts explain who they phone and/or what they are checking? In both AUPs I've done at T5, the (very helpful) agent could give me a price upfront, but didn't process it or swipe my card until she'd called someone and confirmed it could be sold.

I'm not sure who they phone exactly, sales or revenue management/airport team? I really don't know but I am sure someone in the know will be along to tell us/everyone.

The guys flight was on the BA205 to Miami. Interestingly the guy on the left was doing today's flights/AUP's and the other agent was sorting out tomorrow's stuff/rebookings. Although I don't fly long haul until tomorrow as it was within check in time he could assist me and he certainly did. ^ A bit of tapping away and 2 short calls and it was done.

Staying on the subject of AUP, I had asked at EDI about upgrading the leg to LHR (travelling in W, the domestic leg books into Y and I don't know of any way to get around that) and while they were able to quote me a price - the seemingly standard £69 - they said they weren't able to sell me it as they didn't have enough crew working the CE cabin for increased numbers. Fair enough. I suppose they have to check things like that, catering loads (particularly at outstations) and so on. As you say, no doubt an expert will be along soon
