I have a trip in May coming up in Business that I purchased through American Express Travel through the IAP program. This is an I class ticket. Do you happen to know (or have any experience) whether I could upgrade that with JMB miles into F?
Yes, I class IAP tickets are eligible as long as you have JMB miles and have had your JMB account for more than 60 days. Just be warned it will be a nightmare if you need to make changes to your booking after the upgrade. I spent over a month and numerous hours on the phone with Amex to make a simple flight change. Amex couldn’t price it with the correct fare after the upgrade has cleared. The platinum travel desk agent eventually figured it out with the help of JL.
