I am looking for a dream scenario where I am able to upgrade for a cpl hundred $. Thanks.
The short answer is no. Q and N are discount Econ I believe and you would need a flex ticket or an upgradeable econ ticket (I forgot the minimum booking class, but its definitely not Q and N) to use miles to get an upgrade.
