Hi All,

I have gone through quite a few posts and realized that upgrading on EK is becoming a more and more difficult task. I would like to fly to Tunisia (from Melbourne) soon and I have 155000 skywards points - no status. I want to buy an economy class ticket and upgrade Mel to Dxb to J and the return Dxb to Mel leg in J as well.

I'm ready to buy a flex ticket and my date of departure is roughly the first week of December and return 31st December 2013. I call the Melbourne EK office and they said there is no availability at all to get a reward upgrade in the first of December ex Melb on any of the three daily flights out? Will this change at all?

Will expert flyer be of any assistance to me?

Thanks in advance!
