Cruise levels can very a lot due to wind / turb etc. Also on aircraft performance. We cruise up at FL40 /FL 41 between London City and Scotland if it is favorable. With a good departure out of London and continuous climb it can save a lot on fuel and tends to be above the worst weather. I`ve also been as low as FL25 due wind and weather. It all depends on the day!
