J to F upgrade on SQ306 for 45k LifeMiles?
I'm sitting on 64,000 LifeMiles, and it turns out I can use 45,000 of them for an upgrade from J to F on SQ306 in the next couple of days.
Does anyone have any thoughts on whether I should do it?
I could obviously save the miles for another award redemption, or perhaps an upgrade on a 77WN or 380, but I imagine those (the latter upgrades) might be harder to come by.
Oh, also, I only have a 55 minute layover in SIN, so my ability to enjoy TPR would be limited.

Personally I would save the miles - it's one of those flights you really want to maximise the sleeping time, and the J seat is (at least to me) sufficient for that purpose.
Obviously the sleeping quality will be better in F - the bed suface is wider and the mattress makes a big difference. (And obviously the catering differences etc which needs no mention)
It's up to you to decide whether the incremental difference in that quality is worth the upgrade, I guess.

Good point; I didn't consider that. I'll probably save the miles, which is what I was inclined to do in the first place. I just had second thoughts since I wasn't too sure what else I would do with my stash of LifeMiles...
