I know it's not an exact science, and factors such as how full the plane is can affect things, but does anyone know how much in general a one-way paid upgrade from economy to business tends to be, in Pounds, from Heathrow to Dubai?

I'm flying tomorrow morning - certainly going by the seat map at check in, economy seemed pretty busy.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Not exactly - they will want fare difference and change fee, rather than an offer price, especially at LHR. There is sometimes better luck from other stations (e.g. ex-USA), but in general EK don't do those kinds of offers.
