But I just got another upgrade again to Business. I guess a double upgrade does happen! I thought it was just a myth lol.
When I was SL, I flew from MNL to HKG with a Economy X class ticket (Asia Miles Redemption). The lounge staff called my name with the microphone when I was at the lounge and she printed me a new boarding pass of Premium Economy Class. She then asked me if I were upgraded to Business, would I want to keep my ordered fruit platter meal or have the Business Class meal.
However, it turned out the flight wasn't that terribly overbooked (Many vacant seats in PEY, including my neighbouring seat), therefore I didn't get upgraded
