We just received an email from Etihad.....

• You will shortly receive a new e-ticket via email reflecting this upgrade!
.... for SYD-AUH this evening. I will report on the Apartment experience from AUH.

No status in either program at this point in time, but will be VA Gold after reaching Dublin, and VA Platinum after the return flight.
We were ticketed in N (I think) on Etihad 607 tickets but were offered a chance to participate in the upgrade auction anyway. The base bid was about halfway up the scale and I bid a bit over that.

Ok so OP won a buy-up opportunity to F on the A380. Everyone over that yet?
OP, how was your experience? Were there benefits at the airports that you did or did not receive as an upgrade?
