Wait listed for upgrade with points - how does it work?
I asked at the lounge last week if they could wait list me for a Y-J points upgrade on this week's flight. They did that and it looks like this in the booking:
Flight Depart / Arrive Time Airport Duration / Stops Class / Aircraft Booking Status
EK414 DepartSun 23 Mar 14 01:50 Dubai International Airport (DXB) 13 hr 40 min
0 Stops Business
Airbus A380-800 Waitlist
ArriveSun 23 Mar 14 22:30 Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD)
The guy at the desk told me that I had to check each day as they would only hold it for 2-3 days... it is now 6 days later and I have only 3 days until the flight.
What do I have to do here? Just monitor it and click on "upgrade with points" to see if it lets me do so? Do they email me?
