Emirates upgrade BC to FC with sky points

[Andrew63]

Hi I’m seeking advice on possible use of EK Skywards point to upgrade 2 Business class Cash tickets - Saver - on EK 431 … to first class.

Reasoning is - I’ve been told this BNE-DBX flight is on a 777 and has angled (not lie flat) business class seat.

I’m QFF LTG but I presume that won’t make any difference.

Any assistance would be great and thanks in advance. Andrew

Your reasoning is sound, what do you need to know? There doesn't seem to be a question in your post.

You are correct that your QFF LTG won't make any difference.

As this is an EK ticket, upgrading with EK miles, the thread would be more appropriately placed in the EK forum.

Welcome to AFF!

The only good thing to know is that even if your upgrade request gets denied before the flight, if there are seats available on the day of the flight you should be able to upgrade at the check-in counter or even at the gate.

Is your primary aim to fly EK F, or to avoid EK's coughpy business seat on unrefurbished 77Ws?

If the latter, you may want to think about flying other airlines like MH (who resume BNE from 29/11) who have better J seats.
