Ek412/413

Now I would like your views, please.

I'm flying EK 413 DUB-CHC on 16th Oct (in economy), EK 039 to Birmingham on 17th and then returning on 26th Oct on EK038 from BHX and EK 412 from DUB to CHC. The last three legs are all in business (I haven't got enough miles to upgrade the first leg - boo hiss).

Will any of these be the new planes with the lieflat business class seats?

(as I'll be travelling on my own and dressed smartly, will I stand a chance of a free upgrade?!!)

Best wishes

EK412/413 is operated by an A340-500 so no lie-flat seats, EK38 is an A330-200 so again not lie flat and EK39 is a 777-300ER which again unfortunately normally operates with the non-lie flat J . And 413 is normally full in J so you would be very unlikely to get a free upgrade. Sorry for all the negative answers
