I just finished the check in for the ATH-CDG-ATH trip I am going to take this Saturday for the purpose of visiting the Air Show. Contrary to what I hoped for I wasn't prompted with any message asking me whether I would like to get an upgrade. Please note I have no status with AF.
Do you consider its worth asking at the sales desk/check in counter at CDG whether a last-minute upgrade in return for cash is possible for my return trip ?
Thank you a lot

Curious if anyone has done J (award fare) -> F (or P if discounted) using miles? Or do I need to use cash? CS told me 6 seats are available ?? I thought there were only 4.
Would waiting until day of departure help with getting a cheaper paid upgrade to F?
