is it possible to upgrade a coach miles fare to Biz using additional miles also?
Was happy to buy biz directly but pricing does not reflect half price of RT ticket, are there other points in Europe that benefit from decent one way pricing?
Typically cash offers (if you are selected to receive) are sent a few days prior to departure. Miles upgrades - that’s a bit more random and depends on predicted loads ie historical patterns.
