I am a regular QR Emerald flyer, however, do not fly with Sri Lankan Airlines so want to help him on this matter. Also, do you think they should bid for the upgrade instead or wait for Op-Up at the check in? Please let me know your advice / thoughts so that I can help him.
Thanks heaps for your help in advance!
If I remember correctly DOH-CMB-DOH (UL217/218) use an A330. So plenty of seats. I would be very surprised if any one were to receive an op up on this route. My upgrade bid CMB-DOH in early April for $150 was successful.
As was DOH-CMB in early March for $180. Both were originally R class economy tickets (100% credit to Asia Miles)
Happy wandering
