I just had a quick question regarding upgrades.

I am flying LHR -> BLR on BA on the 9th of Feb. Economy. I was told on the phone with BA that I need 12k points + £400 to upgrade to premium economy outbound only. My question is if I want to upgrade to PE/Biz, will it be cheaper at the airport or is this my best bet to book an upgrade over the phone? I'm not a member of any type of flyer program apart from BA avois where I have 10k points, so practically nothing.

Thanks!
If an upgrade to Premium Economy (WTP) is offered at the airport, or online, it will probably cost <£200 and not need any points.

How much to upgrade without using points?
