My problem was I wanted to clear sector by sector as they become available but AM said I couldn't.
Until I asked is there anyway for me to confirm this one sector then they said I should do one way. They didn't tell me this before today. All of them kept saying it's a set.
So now I asked them to put me in one way upgrade.
That's all. And I still don't know how it will go.
Okay, good glad you are getting on the right track with your upgrades.
Fyi, if for example the two sin-hkg-sin segments clear as one ways, you can apply to refund the difference in Asia Miles (round trip is cheaper than two one ways).
Best scenario, if you strike the jackpot and get all four segments upgraded, you will be on the hook for a sin-hkg round-trip upgrade and hkg-yvr round-trip upgrade. Just fyi. This applies to above as well...I think MPC will "see" it as you're upgrading two round trips, due to the mixed class itinerary (they see you as Y/PEY/PEY/Y, hence the mixed class designation). This is what they were telling you on the phone earlier.
However, i definitely rwcommend to issue the one way sectors as they clear. Because the inventory may not stay open and there is no point in waiting. I presume you want whatever clears, even if you can't get everything. For example, say you clear both regional segments and one longhaul but ticket them all independently because they clear at different times. After refund, you will effectively have been charged for a regional Y-J round-trip upgrade, and one-way longhaul PEY-J upgrade. The refund takes a little while to get. And if you only clear two segments, one regional and one longhaul, im pretty sure the charge will be two one-ways.
Final fyi, when dealing with them know that they probably cannot price regional mixed with longhaul since regional is Y-J and longhaul is PEY-J.
Good luck.
