I agree its 0% for a double upgrade. Statistically there's going to be a few people on the planet who have had that pleasure but QF have probably had them assassinated by now to stop the story

Its well known that QF don't pack their premium cabins with upgraders, but they may decide that an opup is the lesser of two evils if dealing with an oversold Y and/or irrops. If the OP's 0-1% comes in, travel will be Y+, which is a damn fine product IMO.
