Likelihood to clear upgrade
Hi,

I am booked in J class CAI-DXB-ICN next July. I would like to upgrade to F using miles, given this is my wife and I's honeymoon. What is the likelihood of getting the upgrade?

thanks!

If you pay 100%.

If you use skyward miles who knows - flights can be busy and EK seems to want to give operational upgrades over people wanting to use miles. You can upgrade at t-48 on a space available basis.

Using miles, as long as inventory is open I can upgrade, correct?
