EK413 AKL-DXB award upgrades J to F
Anyone have any idea about award upgrade availability on the above flight? There's nothing available at the time of writing (flight is 28/1/2011), however I do have the option of upgrading the outbound flight (EK434 DXB - AKL 26/12/2010).
My quandary is, do I take the option of upgrading to F on the A345 now (which will give me a better seat than the sleeperette in J), or risk waiting until nearer the inbound departure on the off chance a seat becomes available on the A388?
Thanks!

As you're travelling DXB- AKL is there a particular reason for choosing the EK434 ?
It would be better to go with EK406/EK412 for the better J product.
If you do wait and don't get the upgrade - the A380 J is still a good product

I'll keep an eye out for seats for now I think, I've used F on the 345 before and would rather try the upgrade on the 388, but usually toward DXB I find F quite full.
