I called Qatar and asked them what is the process of upgrading and they wanted to sell me an upgrade from the current fare.
I am looking for guidance and asking the frequent Qatar Travelers of B is truly an upgradeable ticket if seat is available (I am thinking complimentary). I am also a Platinum with AA (One World) and not sure what are the benefits of using Qatar while putting in my AA One World number.
Any help you can provide me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
To clarify, "upgradable" in this context means using Qatar miles to
redeem an upgrade, if upgrade availability is present.
It is not an American-style free upgrade based on FFP status or upgrade coupon.
