Upgrading a Y class fare costs few miles, but the Y class fare probably costs more than a discount business/first fare. In reality, if you want to upgrade with an MUA you'll want to book the K/T fare that's offered and the redeem the miles required.
Thanks much! That’s exactly it! It didn’t accure to me to look in there- oh well...
Yes yes I know Y Is something no one should ever touch, Just using as catalyst so to speak
ETA: are these upgrd prices on whatever bucket is available in the upgraded cabin ? I.e. Europe>US 15k miles Y>J is that even if there’s only J/D available ?
