I have my parents booked in C on the 77W from FRA to SIN for next week. What would be the best strategy to use eVouchers to upgrade them (I believe my dad has a stash of about 10)?

Should I tell him to call M&M daily, and ask to inquire upon check-in as well if all else fails? Can I use ExpertFlyer to monitor this from my end?

C->F? Good luck! Never said SQ is giving away F inventory on 77W/A380....

I see that out of 42 seats in C, only 6 are still available. In F 7 out of 8 are still free. This is judging by EF, maybe more places have been sold without particular seats assigned.

But if nobody's ever done a C >>> F upgrade on the SQ 77W then I might as well just drop it.

SQ and M&M Evouchers

I came across this thread in a search and resurrect it ...

In my years with M&M I've never managed to use an Evoucher. But a upcoming MAN IAH trip in premium economy with SQ could give me the opportunity to prevent my current batch of vouchers expiring unused.

Well, it could if vouchers can still be used in this way. Can anyone advise?

You need to be in S/T/P PE.

Its all in the eVoucher thread wiki: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/lufth...-merged-q.html

Someone reported trying for SQ or BR PE->C upgrades there AFAIR. I think you need two vouchers for non LH PE->C upgrades.

1 voucher for Lot PE>>C which makes it super interesting for TATL routes, book PE for 1100USD EU<>US and fly 787 C for 2 vouchers and get the 150% mileage. ^^

Never managed to clear an e-voucher on SQ from C to F, despite the help of my PPS co-coordinator and head of sales Germany.

I only managed Eco (B) to Biz on the 2pm departure (SQ326) SIN-FRA. C was probably only half full at max. Good use of 2 expiring eVouchers then. C to F I also never heard happening.

SQ yield management can be incredibly tight.. although for paying F customers it's nice to seldom have more than a few people in the F cabin!

We have some PE flights (Booking Class P) on SQ345/346 (ZRH - SIN) this year.

Did anyone of you guys make some recent experiences on same route or can advise if LH eVoucher are now accepted for upgrade into C on SQ and if so, are 1 or 2 eVouchers are required for this upgrade?

P/S/T are allowed for upgrades with miles and evoucher: https://www.miles-and-more.com/row/e..._basic_01.html

Try the online upgrade tool to see if it requires one or two evouchers: https://muaenduser.staralliance.com/SAUALHWEB/StartPage.do?language=en&airline=lh&coBrand=de

Thanks Oliver!

Unfortunately, they only show upgrade options from Economy/Business in the online upgrade tool but not from PE.

Will check with SEN hotline later and keep you all posted!

Upgrading J > F on SQ using M&M miles

Hi all. I am trying to u/g one way on SQ (SQ317 on 12 July or SW306 on 20 July). Senator hotline has to look up my ticket manually(?) and said there was zero inventory. Any insights or advice welcome! Many thanks.
