    Upgrade requests from Y to both J & PE on same booking - is it possible?

    I have a flight booked SYD-HKG in Economy and have submitted an upgrade request to Business. Having recently dropped back to Silver I reckon my chances in the upgrade lottery are pretty low, so I was thinking maybe I should ALSO put in an upgrade request to Premium Economy but when I go back...
