Virgin Codeshare Upgrades Possible?
I am new to this board-- but learning every day. I am a Gold Elite and have a CO code share ticket on Virgin from LAX to LHR in K class. Has anyone had success in getting an upgrade with miles? I bought my ticket 2 months ago and was told at that time that I was on a waiting list that will be in effect until 72 hours out--- and that the seats don't load up until 30 days out. I had been checking a few times a week to see if anything became available and was just told that there really is no waiting list for codeshares and that it is a good thing they told me now since the agent from the so-called "Elite Priority Line" did not know the rules. That being said, is there anything I can do to try and upgrade my flights or am I probably out of luck? My travel dates are May 12 and June 1. Thanks.
