Cheap Outbound Upgrade

I have noticed today on my BA booking to IAH next week that they are offering an upgrade to WTP for £149? This seems very cheap but I am wondering is this because of a busy or quiet flight?? Any ideas as I don't want to upgrade if I have a whole row to myself in y! I am flying on 27th Dec if anyone could do a load check :-)

Cheers

Mark

The BA217 on a triple-7: F9 A9 J9 C9 D9 R3 I1 W9 E9 T9 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N4 Q1 O8 G4

The BA 293 on a jumbo: F9 A9 J9 C9 D9 R6 I2 W9 E9 T9 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M6 G0

The economy seat maps look empty - but then again no one requests a seat on BA because of the fees involved.

With the new catering service and if you're on the 777 with new WT+ I'd take the offer.

I was offered the same deal for 6 of us who flew out to Miami last wednesday.

We declined for the same reasons as you. Unfortunately economy was full :-(

I was a little surprised that BA manages to send two 747s a day to Houston, never been top of my destination list, but I suppose it's all that oil money!
