If I ran an airline I’d consider doing everything I could to try and persuade people to trade up. That might include making the lowest yield cabin so bad that people who are not totally price conscious might trade up to the highest yield cabin, whilst making the economy proposition cheap enough to attract the price sensitive folk.

And seeing how well Premium Y does for BA it seems that is exactly what they have done.

Looking at my 31C reservation from LAS I'm now praying there is absolutely any sort of availability further up the front. I tried to change the booking but they asked for £2,200 just to move that one leg from Y to W.
