What are Airport Upgrade Promotions?

Airport Upgrade Promotions (AUPs) are offered on BA metal only, plus wet leases such as via Titan or Eastern
AUPs grant immediate access to lounges, Fast Track, higher Priority Boarding and additional baggage for the immediately upcoming set of flights, but not for the return leg as well.

How can I get an AUP?

AUPs are available to all passengers and most fare types, the key exception are non public fares, such as bulk fare
They are subject to availability but don't be shy to ask, it's very little work for an agent to quote the fare (it's on the top of their screen) and not much more work to do the upgrade
AUPs are only offered on the day of travel, there is no point asking beforehand.
AUPs can be done in BA operated lounges and the First Wings at LHR T5 and JFK T7 - again subject to the agent having had the relevant training.
AUPs are now widely available at check-in desks throughout the network - you just need FLY to be in operation

What else should I know about AUPs?

Some check-in agents haven't been trained in how to do AUPs - there isn't a lot you can do about this at smaller locations\
Basic (HBO) fares can have AUPs but the rate is usually higher than other tickets.
AUPs are not available at LCY departures (apparently due to the the lack of a lounge and Fast Track)
AUPs do give additional Tier Points and Avios, so long as the underlying ticket is a revenue ticket. That includes revenue tickets where Avios were use to part pay.
A few locations don't use FLY, or rather use a sub-set of it (e.g. DBV, EGC).

Your only entitled to get the TP's for the underlying revenue fare, WTP, so UuA then an AUP will not or should not grant anything extra.

However, there are sporadic reports they might post in your favour so should such an error happen...………... then best to keep it to yourself

Technically a revenue fare from WT+ to CW doing UuA should then book into U class then an AUP if available and taken should then be Z class as the booking code.

However with BA's flaky IT the Banker can find in your favour sometimes...……..

LUP? (LONGHAUL UPGRADE PROMOTION) time at IAD.
CW -> F $687 for BA216 IAD-LHR
A snack in the nicer lounge, better seating/video and a breakfast in the CC room was worth it.

Multi-Stop Trip AUP

I'm on a multi-stop trip and unfortunately it seems that because of this, I am unable to obtain any POUG offers through the app or online. My trip is DUB>LHR LHR>KUL KUL>BKK. I am interested in upgrading the LHR>KUL leg of the journey, would this be possible to enquire about when I am checking in at Dublin, or would this only be possible at the departure point for that specific flight?

From what I can see at the moment, the AUP offer from September looks a little pricey anyway right now so would have to hope for a deal.

$880 from Y to J isn't that bad. Especially if it's a discount economy seat, another $500 over the W upgrade. Now if it was W->J, that would be fairly dear.

LHR to PHL

What’s a good price to pay for CW to F? I’m hoping to get to check in early tomorrow to secure the seat. I can either use 20k avios on the day or pay cash if the seat is still there. Trying to decide beforehand what is my best option. Any advice appreciated.

Perhaps slightly outside the intention of the thread although moot if one is using a BA codeshare.

AA flight from CLT - MUC W -> J - $500 USD which is probably reasonable for a flight which is/was just over 8 hours. Needless to say, I declined!
