Hey Guys,
I'm doing another trip to the U.S. here are my details:
EK 531. COK-DXB. NOV 24th. DEP 0930. ARV 1200.
EK 203. DXB-JFK. NOV 25th. DEP 0200. ARV 0720.
EK 202. JFK-DXB. DEC 7th. DEP 2300. ARV 2030.
EK 532. DBX-COK. DEC 8th. DEP 2205. ARV 0320.

I'm booked on Economy. I want to upgrade my DXB-JFK sector to business class using miles. But when I tried doing it online & calling skywards, they both told me that its not available!??!?! Otherthan flying in BIZ, I wanna do this also so that i can get a booking at the transfer hotel Le Meridian (DXB) while i'm there for the 14 hours on the way up. PLUS get the chauffeur service when i land in JFK.

1. Can you guys tell me how to get about doing this?
2. When will the seats open for upgrade?
3. What are my other options? alternatives?

THANK YOU!!!!!
