I read somewhere, maybe on here that it might be difficult/impossible, can't remember which, to upgrade the second leg of a multi leg flight at on line check in or at the first airport.
Have your GLA-DXB flights been changed to a 2 class aircraft? I have noticed this happened quite a few times in December 2013 and in another post for at least one forthcoming flight in January 2014.
Fingers crossed for unsold inventory on both our longhaul flights and no involuntary downgrade for me between Glasgow and Dubai!
Thanks for replies - you have a similar routing.
We are EK 28 10/1 and EK 408 (via KUL) 11/1; returning EK 405 24/3 and EK 27 25/3.
The additional information if it helps at the bottom of the e-ticket says:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
FQEK 'my number' NON-END/SKYWARDS SAVER//VLD ON EK/WPID 'a number'
I've virtually checked daily for the last month or two only to get the sorry not available message but once it said 2 were available MEL-DXB and none on the other sectors but I couldn't go any further on Manage a Booking to actually get into booking an upgrade for this.
I'm not on Expert Flyer btw.
