I didn't want to give AF more money after they've lost my bag on the inbound… in other circumstances maybe… but just for the better food? I don't know… Flight left with one empty seat in C. We were a party of 3 (2 golds, one without status, upgrade price for each one of us was the same), so seated all in one row (8 ABC just behind the curtain). Lounge of course was available in TFS, and being a contract lounge, I was just a bit surprised that they allowed a guest. And of course there was the nice lounge in CDG in transit to ZRH with some really good food at dinner time.

Had OTP-CDG for 99€/24k miles on Christmas eve. I'm FB Silver but didn't took the offer since the lounge in OTP is awful... And I never spend money/miles on A320 business class.

It was a cheap ticket.

DUB - CDG upgrade to business offered for 279 this morning during OLCI. Which seemed quite expensive.

An offer of not member. If I was on the booking I'd definitely take the cash offer. Cabin wide open for tomorrow on 787.

I'd be tempted so much that I would take it.

Arguably guaranteed empty middle seat, front of the plane seat, Sky Priority and lounge access. For most of us here, things wed have anyway as part of the STE+ status (baring the empty middle seat). I could see the appeal for someone without status nor lounge access at that price.

Poor value for the MRS-AMS!
For a daytime flight AMS-EBB, it makes sense why you were hesitating.
