Asia Miles have been frankly useless, resorting to computer says no because they have changed the scheme so longer can do anything with upgrades. I have spoken to British Airways who have advised that if CX/AM contact BA through the OneWorld helpline they are happy to facilitate the change but I can not convince any agent to at least try this method.

Can anyone suggest a method by which I can reach an agent that might be able to think outside the box?

Thanks
Carrying the old passport together with current one should work. Worst case would be to pay a fee to get the name changed at the airport.
