Hi,
Planning on flying adelaide/singapore return in october and doing some sums (considering J both ways with JASA, Classic or trying my luck with upgrades). Here's my question: Is there anyway I can tell the booking class (when booking JASA or $ only) when looking at flights? The reason I ask is that to upgrade Y to J costs 15,000 points if its from a full (Y) economy ticket but 24,000 from discount economy (BGHKLMS & V). At 24,000 it doesn't seem like great value given a classic award economy is 25,000 in Y and 50,000 in J. I'll take my chances if it's only 15,000 but on all the various fares I can find the conditions only state that upgrades are available but only mentions that the ticket is considered discount economy for points accrual and status purposes. When it says this does it also mean for upgrade purposes?
Hope someone can help!
