40.000 miles to upgrade from Y to Y+ one-way? That's crazy.
Where did you get this information, and which route ?
According to web page
JAL International Upgrade Awards Chart - JAL Mileage Bank
Japan - Europe one way upgrade from economy to premium economy requires 20,000 miles.
When the airport upgrade discount promotion is applied, it is 15,000 miles.
