Also gone are the days of upgrading a special fare onboard. There's almost 55% hike on those!!! AKL-SYD not showing (Sorry, information for this route is currently unavailable. Please try again later.)
SYD-AKL jumping to 16.5k instead of 12.5k

But upon checking BEY-DXB which is of similar cost, it shows 19.5k for onboard upgrade from saver vs 12.5k from flex/current!
