Another quick question on this, is there logic to how many PE seats BA release per flight?

I’ve been checking the LHR-IAH flights for 355 days ahead, over the past few days.

2nd Feb 2025: 2 PE seats
1st Feb 2025: 2 PE seats
30th Jan 2025: plenty availability on the early flight; 2 PE seats on the later flight

Strangely, for 31st Jan 2025, website says there are 8 PE seats between LHR and IAH. But when I add in the initial connection from Belfast, it’s saying no availability. If that is the case when I go to book, can I book the 4 x PE LHR – IAH seats online, and then call BA up to add in the Belfast flight? (Belfast flight lands 8.15; flight to IAH departs 9.25 – not sure if it’s because there’s a short connection time?)

Anyone able to shed any light/ info?
