Hey Everyone, Apologies if this is a noob question. I'm flying QF 557 tomorrow evening (BNE > SYD) and requested a classic upgrade award from the red e-Deal ticket I purchased. I noticed that the upgrade hasn't cleared meaning that we've got a U0 for that flight. Upon checking ExpertFlyer I see...

Hello, I'm travelling to HNL at the end of May from SYD on a paid JQ Plus fare. I'm curious what upgrade options (if any) there are to move up to business class. In particular can one use points to upgrade the flight? What about cash? If I was successful in the upgrade how would the status...

I requested a Classic Upgrade Award for an A330 SYD - CNS flight, however unfortunately the flight's been swapped out for a 737 (I guess I probably should've seen this coming). This was confirmed instantly since there was Business award space remaining on the flight. Anyway, instinctively my...

Was wondering if anyone can help. I bought economy domestic tickets making sure that there was business classic reward seats available assuming I would be able to get an immediate upgrade if this was the case. I requested the upgrade using my points and a day later it still hasn't done...

Good morning everyone. No doubt you'd remember someone else posted a little while ago about receiving an upgrade to Gold in the mail. Well a couple of hours ago I just got a similar offer upgrading me from Gold to Platinum - via email. I only hit Gold for the first time (since taking up an...

Currently, MEL to SIN flights don't offer PE. The system won't let you book Economy for MEL to SIN leg then PE on leg to Europe. (Crazy) So if book 100% Economy with a view to then trying to upgrade using points - can you select which specific legs you want to upgrade to PE ? Or have to do all ?

Did anyone else receive one of these Gold upgrades in the mail? Quite a lovely surprise for sure!

I’ve booked a domestic economy flight Red E-deal N. There are business seats showing to be booked with points. I have requested an upgrade. I thought this was done fairly quickly in the past but now QF told me over the phone that they will let me know within 7 days of the flight which is next...

I just tried to bid for upgrade with an Elevate fare and it was deemed ineligible. I’ve never had any fare not eligible for a bid for upgrade with Virgin before. Is there some new policy that only Freedom fares are eligible? This is for a flight from KNX-PER.
