Does anyone know what the fare basis is for upgrades offered at ticketing for international flights.
Specifically, I'm trying to figure out if on a paid upgrade at ticketing a) you get the bonus EQM, and b) can you then apply a SWU and UG into F.
I have done the SIN-HKG buy up offer last Sept (the last hurrah's on 896), it change my booking class to Z. Everything else in V (part of ORD-HKG-SIN-HKG (stoppover) -ORD. I get the bonus miles on that segment, but as it was Z I can't upgrade to F with SWU, I even asked at the gate (still have 4 SWU goes to the bin in a week).
