flight upgrades

Hi All 👋🏻 I’m wondering if people have advice… So. I bought a flight (Syd to bne) using cash. I checked to make sure there were business reward seats avail. I then requested an upgrade. In the t&c’s it says that if a classic upgrade reward is available at the time of request, it will be...

Hi All I don't normally pay for the lounge but status ended EOFY. I have a flight tomorrow and anticipating not getting an upgrade I paid for x3 lounge passes. Now with the upgrade I have J lounge access. Any chance I can save these for a later date?

Hi, First time using Classic Upgrade Rewards so if someone could provide some insight that would be much appreciated. Have a paid economy ticket and noticed it can be upgraded to business. This is for girlfriend who is a newly minted QFF and flying QF for the first time. At first, I tried to...

Just wondering when I would find out if a request to go from PE to BUS would be processed. I have a flight from HNL to SYD on Qantas and could only afford PE seats (they want over $5000 to fly the route in BUS). I need 32,700 points for the upgrade and should get to that figure before my flight...

Hi all, I want to learn a bit more about Classic reward upgrades, as reading the Qantas help pages, I still didn't really understand. Thanks to your suggestions in another thread, I have successfully booked 3x J classic reward legs, all direct! Syd>HAN with JAL, NAR>CDG with AF, and...

Hi all, Just noticed that in my VFF account the numbers for Plat upgrade don't match in the main view vs the "How far from upgrading" one. Anyone else seen this before or am I misinterpreting something? I'm guessing the real number is 122 not 107....

Hi all, I am flying on a flexible PE ticket , 2 pax, with CX in September (first time with CX, so apologies if this is a silly question) from SYD - HKG - CDG, and return MXP - HKG - SYD. After purchasing my tickets I received an option to request an upgrade with a cash bid, which I did with...

My wife are flying Etihad Business to Europe next March. When we did the same 10 years I was able to upgrade to First at checkin for $800 each, and was planning to ask the same question this time around. I see on their website they now have an auction system two days out. Has anyone done this...

Currently a Five star Tier member with Hertz. Got a booking with Hertz pickup from Gold Coast airport, any chance for a free upgrade based on previous experience ?

I have been trying to upgrade people using QR points for a while now in jan feb mar someone silver Y to J and recently myself J to F but have never ever seen a seat do they actually exist long haul? any positive remarks? any way to make it happen?

Not sure of the scenario here ... travelling on a single Classic Rewards booking made by the bronze passenger - I am platinum, but would like to press 'Upgrade to Business' - the query is ... if it is successful, will we both be upgraded? Obviously I don't want just the one of us to be upgraded.

Sorry if this has already been asked (search is a bit finicky sometimes), I have an upgrade request in on QF1 from Y+ (WP). On EF the loadings show J0 from SYD-LHR and SYD-SIN, but J9 on SIN-LHR. If there is no availability on the combined legs, but there is availability on one leg, does the...

So Qatar have a good economy class fare from Sydney to Dublin, via Adelaide in both directions. The flight between Sydney and Adelaide is Virgin of course. What's the prospect of upgrading those legs to business class using Velocity points, to start and end the trip in comfort?

Qantas points to Cathay Asia Miles for Upgrade Are you able to transfer QFF to Asia Miles for seat upgrades and if so how?

Morning All, Heading back to Perth 1st April BC on QF12, App saying 66k points for first upgrade. Just wanted opinions as never flown first and maybee only opportuity. Given its just a work trip and im heading home maybe I just save points for vacation. 1. Anyone flown fc think its a...

Looking for some advice Recently scored a points upgrade to premium economy on QF2. Then got bad beep at the gate and further upgrade to J. Was issued a boarding pass LHR-SIN but told to see lounge about SIN-SYD. Checked points balance at SIN to see that full Y-J LHR-SYD upgrade tariff...

Hi all, Bit of a strange question, but wanted to see if I should be concerned at all. I had a PER > CBR flight booked which was cancelled and moved to a PER>MEL>CBR routing (now a red-eye instead of a lovely daytime flight :confused:). Couple strange things about this: - Booked through a...

Mrs EchoNBounce just made WP too. Now denied the ability to lord it over, my thoughts have naturally turned to upgrade shenanigans. On the basis that either of us are happy if the other gets an upgrade: Is it better for us to travel on a single PNR and (de facto) both bid for a classic...

I've had an AMEX Discover card since 2016 (making me a poor churner). Looking to close so the 18 month timeout clock starts. I know back in the day, cardholders had some luck in upgrading. From what I understand, it was fewer points than what was on offer to new members but still a fair whack...

There may be a thread on this but I couldn't find it. I'm doing a mercy dash to Europe for a sick parent and I was wonderingIs it possible to use points to upgrade the flights (looks like a Qatar codeshare as the stopover is Doha). Also what are the odds of getting one? I've had very little...
