Currently in the app, it splits up the two legs as costing 60,840 (leg 1 -- unavailable) and 65,910 (leg 2 -- available).

Does anyone know: if the first leg does open up, would the total to upgrade both revert back to the 74,750 total?
Just a quick reply as I am in the middle of something elase:

Once you have upgraded one leg , the only way you can get the lower 'combined' upgrade total is to phone the contact centre and ask for the two legs to be combined. If you do the second leg though MMB, you will NOT get the combined total but the sum of the two separate legs. And if you then phone in and try to change that, chances are that it will NOT be possible.
