A few weeks ago I booked a QF flight from SYD to CBR in late November. I paid cash to buy the red e-deal fare then used points to upgrade to J. Today, I received an email that equipment swap to that flight resulting in me travelling on an aircraft that has no business class. After accepting the...

I have made a booking, that is now visible within my HHonors account -- when open it I am offered the chance to pay for a room upgrade. I fancy trying out the executive lounge, but should I wait in case I get a free upgrade as a gold member (thanks to Amex)?

Just booked an EK flight and looking to upgrade to business with points. The manage booking page gives a couple of options: 1) Auto-upgrade. As soon as an upgrade becomes available we'll allocate it and deduct the relevant fee on that day from your points balance 2) Upgrade alert. We'll send...
