Help needed desperately !!
Hello,
I need to make a decision asap on a trip to BHX from BLR.
1. I have a choice between AF (via CDG) and EK (via DXB with a 12-hour stopover ). The DXB stopover helps me spend the night with family. I am on the verge of turning into FB Silver and have a tempting 12,500 miles offer on EK from BLR to BHX. Which should I take ? I am personally tending towards EK....
2. I have around 20k miles on EK and wish to redeem them for an upgrade to J on the DXB-BHX sector. Can this be done on the spot at the check-in counter at BHX or do I have to do make an advance notification of this ?
Thanks in advance for your help.....

Upgrades cannot be procced at checkin (when using miles, at least.) Organize it beforehand. It can be done till a few days before departure, and there is usually high availability.
