Upgrade and miles

I booked an economy class ticket. I upgraded the ticket to Business class using asiamiles. So will I still receive the miles for the K class ticket I originally booked or none because of the upgrade?

You will get the amount of miles you should have received from your original purchase; in your case, K class will be normal economy class miles.

Your MPC account might show 0 miles for this flight as it reflects your UG booking class but as others have stated you will receive original fare class mileage.

You'd still get the credit for Club Miles though, correct? Just have to phone into MPC and have them adjust it?

I'm doing the same thing as OP at end of July so want to make sure I know all the details!

Cheers!

You will always get the miles of your original booking class.

No need to call even if the booking shows "0" miles. You'll get the miles in the original booking class. Dare I say it, the system has become much more clever after the revamp... although there are still some hiccups from time to time.
