Several questions:
1) Having read this forum, I realised that V is the lowest class. It is eleigible for upgrade, isn't it? Will I receive the letter from AF?
2) Once my friend was upgraded to Business for 100$ on 8h flight (Lufthansa) after she had called airline 2 times before departure telling that she was on honeymoon and asking about all possibilities. I feel uncomfortable with such strategy , but is there any sence?
Thank you

If you booked with AF and an upgrade is available for your flight, you should see the upgrade option button either a few days before your flight or offered during check-in. The upgrade on the CDG-PUJ flight will cost you around 600 Euros from Economy to Premium Economy, and somewhere in the 900 Economy to Business.
