Cheers Matt, this is the sort of thing that would be great for us all to post in here when we find good upgradeable fares like this (or fares which are only a bit more expensive than the non-upgradeable version at that moment in time).


Looking at your example of ARN-PEN in H (I don't know the dates you were using) I can see that the cheapest business class offering is 1,713 EUR vs 830 EUR (in April I searched, is a B fare) so the difference is ~900 EUR cash to buy a biz fare vs this H/B fare with an upgrade of 85,000 QMiles. Nice
This is vs the disgraceful cost of 251,000 QMiles for a ticket in biz.

Fantastic :-)

This is the sort of thing I'd love to get this thread populated with so we can all start enjoying well worked out upgrades as I'm sure we're all cheesed off looking at the outright cost in QMiles of straight business class tickets since the 'enhancements' :-)
