I went on Emirates website to see my booking, and I was offered to upgrade to J with miles for the CDG-DXB leg. 39 000 miles + 40 €
Usually, this kind of offers is very rare, and happens a couple of days before the journey, not like 3 weeks before.
I took this offer
Not that unusual, many of us here regularly upgrade with miles, I just upgraded a flight for January with miles. It may be more rare on this route, but will be available every so often subject to loads.
