I'm not clear at this moment if the above is round-trip or each-way ( I was afraid to ask.) Additionally, I don't know applicability to VIP upgrades.
Also effective December 1 will be the discontinuance of the upgrade awards between Latin America and Europe.
And I'll bet we'll still have to pay "expedite" fees as well....
