Not sure how much the upgrade offer dollar amounts vary on the same route - this was my first time getting them.
$200 from KWI - DXB is indeed overpriced, not to mention I have enough miles to get upgraded on that flight. That offer of $1000 to get an upgrade from DXB - SFO was extremely reasonable, and I hope you enjoy your flight
Hopefully I get good offers like yours in the future (I wish they offered me the upgrade from DXB - KUL rather than KWI - DXB
)
