What route? What ticket were you on? There is an upgrade thread you should post the details there...

It needs to be a sticky if posters are expected to see and use it.

OP: Here's a link. Please add your information in the format used there.

Nice one :cool:

Although ..... not quite a cigar*. I do believe we had a case a while back of someone getting a similar move - BUT on their very first EK flight and so, as a mere blue.

Sadly, after hitting the jackpot that day, they didn't get a single upgrade during their next 100 flights.

(actually ....I made up the last sentence)

*no cigar in ANY class these days of course .....

cape Town has to be one of worst routes to try bag any form of redemption in the form of upgrade, op-up and actual seat redemption using miles in all classes. :(

Agree - its one route I do pay F for, especially as every time I've flown it its been 8/8

I've got a 100% record from there (1 from 1). ;)

J-F op-up.

I have got one op-up (DXB/CPT) and one mileage upgrade (both for 2 pax, J-> F) in probably 20 flights.
