- Upgrade with TK miles is possible from any class including low paid economy
- Possible to buy award ticket for someone else, but not possible to upgrade someone else with my TK miles (?) unless we have a family account. Only option is to transfer to their account at 10 euro/1000 miles?
Nope that all sounds about right. Bear in mind the upgrade rates vary with TK dependent on obviously the class and also the time of year you're flying
