Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

[BRIS_VA_HAWK]

Min bid of $65 successful CBR - MEL tomorrow morning. (weird it’s higher than SYD-MEL)

I've found some strange offer amounts - perhaps it's (sometimes) based on how much you paid for your original fare?

Looks like boss booked a reward fare. I’m happier than my colleagues arriving SYD-MEL on JQ.

SYD-HBA early morning flight on Saturday was successful at $60, but not on today's lunchtime flight HBA-SYD for the same amount; 4 seats available with 7 people when I got an increase your bid e-mail

$60 unsuccessful yesterday SYD-CNS. Received the “outbid” email a week ago but wasn’t fussed as 3A and empty seat next to me anyway which stayed empty.

$60 successful on return tomorrow. Really just $60 for lunch as I was again in 3A already but a bargain for a 3 hour flight, not to mention the original flight was just $75 which is wild (though Cairns isn’t exactly the place to be this time of year).

$135 is pretty decent for a 3hr flight in whY these days, let alone J.
