Far better off using the BA Fare Sale, which is only slightly more.

I think DUB is one of the routes that gets the new bed?

I dont think ET publish any current information about which routes and planes have fully-flat seats (I understand some 787s have fully flat, some angled flat).

I keep waiting for someone to show that I've made an error. But just checked United again, and "P" gets no credit. There seem to be other discount fares in Business that do, like D. But in D class the airfare is like + $2,100...

As I understand correctly, that refers to tickets issued on UA stock, meaning issued by UA. I don't believe you can book this fare on UA other than ET website, in which case, it books in P and doesn't earn anything if credited to UA.
