I have Avios points but I don't think Eva Air take these? Would it be worth waiting until we are at the airport to ask about upgrading there?

thanks!

It is never a good idea to go to the airport and ask about monetary upgrades. Day-of tickets are expensive. They normally only have C(Flex Tickets). Asking then would mean a ticket difference between yours and the most expensive ticket they offer.

I never knew BKK-LHR has such cheap Business class tickets, only 1900 Euros!
