MHUpgrade is MH's implementation of Plusgrade's bid on an upgrade platform.
- You can check if your itinerary is eligible for bidding on an upgrade (most are) on MH's website here, but it typically takes 24-48 hours after the ticket is issued for the itinerary to be in Plusgrade's system
- You cannot bid for flights departing within 72 hours
- Minimum bids are dynamically set based on various factors, and don't appear to change as you get closer to flight departure
- Tip: If you're bidding the minimum, you should consider making the bid in USD unless bidding in your home currency avoids credit card costs that are higher than the difference in pricing (see this post)
- Bid amounts can be changed or withdrawn up to 72 hours from flight departure. It does not appear that you can update the credit card number
- Accepted bids will be processed within the 72 hours window, generally prior to 48 hours to departure
- If your bid is accepted:
- The credit card will be charged
- You will be rebooked in "I" class for business class, "P" class for first class
- You will receive an email notification from Plusgrade
- You will receive an email with your new eTicket from the airline
- Within MH Enrich, mileage accrual is based on the fare class on your original ticket. For partner programs, without manual intervention, your mileage accrual is based on the class you've been rebooked into, not the one from your original ticket. Retro claims based on original booking may be required, it is unclear yet if they will be accepted or not.
- Note that "I" earns nothing, including no segment credits or tier points (it's as if you never took the flight) on AA, BA, CX, and probably other carriers (check your program's information), so from a frequent flyer standpoint you might end up worse off
- There are multiple reports from multiple users in this thread that mileage on partner programs (BA) will be credited based on the earning rates (if any) from original booking class, following manual intervention/claim.
- Please read MH's FAQs
MHUpgrade option, anyone tried it?

I've put in my bid as well for the KUL-PVG-KUL sectors at S$120 each way as well since that is the minimum bid. Didn't bid for the SIN-KUL-SIN sectors since it was such a short flight (S$40 minimum bid).

)Haven't gotten the one I'd really like on KUL-CDG yet...and probably won't, since I'm sure that will be well sold in J.

For my upcoming KUL-BKK flights the bidding range is MYR200-850. Little benefit given OWS for lounge access, but might be worth it for some.

Here is an interesting question, has anyone here been offered an updated who is NOT already at least one world Sapphire??
I have a friend on the same flight as me, who has no status, who did NOT get the upgrade email....makes me wonder if they are targeting this.
So for those with an offer for upgrade, your OW status response would be interesting to know....

I have also had an upgrade offer 
I am Silver with MAS
Three weeks ago I booked Dublin-London-Kuala Lumpur-Langkawi-Kuala Lumpur-London-Dublin in Economy, then used points to upgrade LHR-KL-LHR flights to J Class.
When the itinerary was emailed to me, we had been upgraded on the KL to Langkawi flight.
Got an email last night saying upgrade was available for the Langkawi to KL flight.
Price range from £20 to £80.
As far as I know there is no MAS Lounge in Langkawi. Can anyone confirm this for me please?
Don't think it is worth upgrading if there is no lounge,but I might put a minimum offer in to see what happens.
