I would just like to thank QANTAS, for sending me an email yesterday, offering me the opportunity to upgrade my 'O' ticket on my flight to LAX next wednesday, using my points, so long as I applied for the upgrade before 10th November. Shame they did not check that I had just used all my points booking an Award PE seat for my trip next year. (thank you to the members that advised me to book an award seat 355 days out - got the flight and seats I wanted) So, being a lowly Bronze member, I still got the opportunity to upgrade from QANTAS on a discounted ticket, what's my chances of getting upgrade at the counter when we check in ??? not holding my breath.
