All partner UGs cost 40 +Ps per flight.
Thank you! The day flights I’m sure are much harder to upgrade than red eye. I got it last time I did NH159 but they don’t serve a full meal so experience wise isn’t as complete as day flight. Glad to hear at least my return chances are good! I haven’t tried the Room before so even J should be good enough for me

But next time I’ll def try to use PP since I have so many left and I hardly use them since I almost always buy biz class to get PQP and PP always is waitlist and being 1K isn’t that easy to clear upgrade in my experience.
