Well in complete contrast got an avios booking on CX Y out J back LGW BKK I managed to get CX customer service to allocate my non status friend within an hour of sending the email although 59K on the 359 was $190 for him and free to me as OWS
That's pretty good service IMO sna I could have requested a free non legroom seat so wasn't just about revenue

But nevertheless UD always offer more space, side storage bin for window seats (except row 30), usually a better service and no kids (only had once on a BKK-DOH flight), absolutely no (crying) baby and many front row seats (row 25 and 30).

In all my experiences (CDG-DOH, DOH-CDG, BKK-DOH, DOH-BKK) UD was more packed than LD as they seem to allow any wiling non status passenger to get an UD seat at airport check-in.
