Anyone have experience with UpgradeMe on the LAX run recently?
Have PE tickets booked and got the email offering a J upgrade for a minimum of $1200 each - which as a I recall is the same as, if not more than, the difference between the PE and J tickets when I originally booked, making it pretty poor value.
I'd be perfectly happy with PE as the quieter cabin was one of the main draws, but the thought of it being chockers with Y upgraders is the only thing that makes this offer in any way slightly attractive.
Jnr is heading off (MEL-xBNE-LAX return) on the 20th December, returning the 6th Jan. This was only booked about 4 weeks ago, and all the saver fares were gone. Her ticket is full economy fare and cost ~ $2,400 ish (with discount code). Her offer to upgrade (to PE) is $700 on the outbound and $800 on the return. Not worth it.
