    JAL Economy Ticket Upgrade To Business

    Hi Would be possible to upgrade a JAL Economy ticket to Business on the day of the departure. Sometimes, there were unsold business class seat on the day of departure and the airlines offer them for a price at the airport's check in counter. Anyone had that experience recently.
