Sitting Next To Partner - Classic Upgrade Rewards

[Flyboi420]

Hi all,

Flying QF MEL-LAX soon on the A380.

My wife and I are in premium economy, and requested classic upgrade rewards to business.

I had some quick questions for the AFF brains trust:
- Will we definitely be seated next to each other if successfully upgraded? And if not, do we have a chance to decline it or something? Would rather not be separated if upgraded

- what are the chances of upgrade for two bronze QFF on a Monday morning QF93?

Maybe not seated together, but possible. Accepting the upgrades to all the perks of J, and waving to each other across the cabin no good?

I know what I would do.

Good luck! Seriously.

Note: Two people requesting upgrades are done after single upgrades. Bronze upgrades after all the other privileged. MEL LAX would be High on the request for J upgrades. But Monday flights tend to be less crowded,

But good luck!

It depends if there are still two seats together. They won't (shouldn't) move others just to accommodate you. Especially if they paid for J and had preselected their seats.

No, there’s no guarantee to be seated together.

Not without penalty. Once processed you will be charged 5,000 points per person to cancel a confirmed upgrade more than 24 hours out from departure. Within 24 hours, if you cancel the upgrade you lose the points. As Bronze member upgrades are confirmed within 24 hours, essentially they can’t be cancelled without full loss of points.

Depends on the flight, impossible to know until relatively close to departure.

Good luck with the upgrades but personally I wouldn’t care where I was seated in J if I scored an upgrade. Mrs Jase and I often sit in completely different parts of the J cabin to get the seats we want

Some may need to hold hands during the flight.

But, others may appreciate the break.
