EK 765 DXB-JNB, 3 Oct
F2 A2, Business and Economy classes: 0 across the board
Seatmap shows 6/8 unassigned F seats, 6 unassigned J seats and 19 blocked seats.
Assuming no more Z seats are released, what are the odds of and best strategy for a DXB-JNB Op Up?
Gold with 6K tier and 25K miles.
Assuming it does not already do so change your surname (and passport) to one that begins with an A then change your Skywards record and change your ticket too - oddly enough the last two may prove more difficult than the first one.
