  • What ffp's are you a member of? And status?
  • Often low priced economy tickets are not eligible for upgrades.
  • Cross airline upgrades are uncommon and if available have many t&c's
  • When it come to upgrades (by any method) USA based airlines & non USA based airline work very different.
  • The chances of an upgrade with ff miles/ with cash co-pay is low.
