Hi
I have a dilemma, My wife has 30,200 air miles and will have enough air miles to upgrade from economy to business on one of the final 2 sectors!!! My wife is not a keen flyer and would prefer to sit with me during the flight and she is not really bothered about up-grade using her Miles which will expire in August this year.
My dilemma is, do i use her miles and up-grade myself and leave her sitting on her own in economy, Do i persuade her to try Business Class knowing that she wont be eating or drinking all that much and just sleeping, Or just for get about the Miles and let them expire!!!!

What would you do if you had the option???

On another note, Do you think emirates allow a upgrade with the 31700 knowing that the flight that we are on would give a final mileage of 33200? This would allow a upgrade between Dubai to Bangkok. Emirates did allow me once to book a free return flight which i was 2000 miles short and they loaned me miles so i could do the booking. (we need 32000 for the up grade to business)

Finally, When your blue, Can you use your miles to upgrade on Check-in or boarding, I was given these options when i was Gold.
