yes you see it right. its like this for an extended period of time now.

LHR BKK LHR round trip economy class to I class upgrade (mileage upgrade business class) is between 76000 and 140000 miles, depending on type of economy class. see chart.

additionally you will be asked to pay money to live up to the difference (from economy class fees and surcharges to premium fare (IJDCOPAF-buckets) in fees and surcharges.

note: you cannot upgrade any X Class (mileage economy class) to I Class (mileage business class) by mileage upgrade.
