Upg - F

Upgrading the whole trip makes it too expensive at this time- 3x more each, so I'll wait until I'm in HKG, and ask at the lounge or the transfer desk. If the quote is too much, then we'll just have to suffer in business class

johnkennet,

At "The Wing" the CX J/F lounge opposite Gate 2, the staff will simply calculate an I-F UPG, and charge you for it by sector. I've done it many times from D-F.

Thanks
