Did you manage to UuA? Just wondering as I see it says no changes, no upgrades under the conditions. I was wondering whether that just prohibited putting it into a higher J bracket or using cash to upgrade to F after booking. I haven't heard of I fares that cant be upgraded with Avios, so would be interested if you were able to do this.

This should be it I think, basically non-refundable, or change for EUR180 + any fare difference.

12. The fare conditions for the original ticket purchased will apply, please check Manage my Booking on Ba.com or call your local service centre. In addition, your upgrade will be subject to the following:
- Changes to the date or time of an upgrade flight must be made at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled departure of the first leg of the Reward itinerary.
- Changes are subject to availability in the original cabin, in addition to the upgraded cabin. Certain flights may have very limited or no availability on certain dates because of existing bookings. If the original booking is peak and the customer wishes to move to an off-peak date then the difference in Avios will be refunded. Equally, if moving from an off peak to a peak date, the additional Avios will be charged. Where there is no availability in the desired flight, Avios points will be re-credited to the Member’s account subject to reward flight booking and service fees that are applicable, which will need to be paid by the Member.
- Within 24 hours the Avios used for the upgrade are not refundable, however the Member can be downgraded back to the original cabin should the fare conditions allow and subject to availability on the desired flight.
- Cancellations at least 24 hours prior to departure of the first leg in the Reward itinerary, will be eligible for a full refund of the Avios used for the upgrade, and the fare conditions of the original booking will apply for any other refunds.
- Cancellations within 24 hours prior to departure of the first leg in the Reward itinerary, will not be eligible for a refund of the Avios used for the upgrade, and will be subject to the fare conditions of the original booking.

I found a nice promo directly on QR website, for TUN-PEN in April. I didn't have the time to check other dates so it's possible other months are available.
Price for one person is around €1050, while for 2 people the price is around €850 each. 560 TPs and short layover on outbound.
Minimum stay seems to be 3 days.

It's available on plenty of dates - doesn't show the reduced price until you've selected outbound on GF

Is that the same price range? I can't look it up because the QR site is appalling, doesn't even work in the slightest on my version of chrome on linux.

You all seem to find some amazing deals throughout here and the TP Run thread. What is your preferred method of searching for Business Class travel? There are so many different ways to search and investigating different routes, I find that Skyscanner can fail to find you the best deals and you are unable to search for business fares over a week/month long period. Any little bit of advice or any links to somewhere that some good tips are documented would be great.
