We were ticketed in N (I think) on Etihad 607 tickets but were offered a chance to participate in the upgrade auction anyway. The base bid was about halfway up the scale and I bid a bit over that.
So, er, it's a paid upgrade of a few thousand euro?
Enjoy the experience, although doesn't sound quite as amazing as the first post sounded haha
