only last minutes upgrade won’t count.
Fabo.sk was right. Paid upgrade at OLCI on AFKL do not give you XP of the upgraded class but those of the originally booked class. However, you earn more miles as what you paid for the upgrade is taken into account in the calculation.
If you did earn XP of your upgraded class, this was a glitch and not the regular way, so do not think it will be like that every time.
