Qantas Upgrades on Segments with Different Fares in same booking

[GoldenTouchdown]

Resurrecting this thread to ask whether the amount of points for a QF CR J upgrade on a particular segment is based on the most restrictive fare type in a mixed saver/flex booking, or the specific fare type booked for a particular segment to be upgraded? Am considering booking such a combination soon to increase chances and reduce the points needed for an upgrade on the return leg of an international itinerary

I’ll ponder sussing it out

After all this food I’ll need a snooze

Upgrades can only be requested/applied per segment. The eligibility and amount of points required for an upgrade is calculated based on a segment's fare bucket. The presence of segments having different classes (/buckets) within the same booking has no bearing on the number of points required.

This is indirectly disclosed in the Qantas Frequent Flyer terms, Section 17: "Classic Upgrade Rewards can be requested for a specific flight and date ..."
