Hi, & what an awesome site!

[Matty_Boy]

Have spent an enthralling afternoon wading through this site, trying to understand acronyms, fare class codes etc...Very enlightening!
I don't travel an awful lot, but when I do, always fly QANTAS.
This may not be the place, I'm new to forum websites, but am lucky enough to be traveling to London next Thursday 27th Jan (QF031). I have hedged my bets & applied for an upgrade to both premium & business using points, not sure how lucky I'll be?
Does anyone know if I apply/pay for an exit row & manage to then get upgraded, would I get a refund?
Not sure what to do, being my first time to London. Any advice would be appreciated.
Sorry if I've posted in the wrong area!

Welcome to AFF!

Out of curiosity for your upgrade, what status do you have with Qantas?

Apparently its Nuthin Bronze!

Looking at the loadings:

[URL="javascript:void(0)"]F5[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]A5[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]J9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]C1[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]D0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]I0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]W0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]R0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]T0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]Y9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]B9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]H9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]K9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]M9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]L9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]S9[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]G0[/URL] [URL="javascript:void(0)"]E0[/URL]

shows there isn't much, nothing in Y+ and J reasonably full. You might be lucky though. Being Bronze doesn't help..

Thanks so much, not sure what all the codes mean but assume it's availability in certain section. I take it there's not a lot? Here's hoping!

Hi matty_boy, welcome to AFF.

To answer your question, if you pay for an exit row seat then subsequently get upgraded you are entitled to a refund.
