Upgrade for an award ticket
Hi,
I am flying on Jet airways SFO-BOM-SFO using my NW worldperks miles in November this year. Currently i am booked in coach class as BC was not available then.
I would like to upgrade to BC for the entire journey.
What is the best way to do that. I have called NWA(my ticket is booked through NWA) many times to check for the upgrade and they always say that nothing is available.
Also i have to spend few hours at BOM airport and i was wondering if i can use the Jet airways lounge there. I am not sure if i'll be upgraded to BC or not. Is there any other way to use the lounge? I mean one day pass or something?
Any suggestions/pointers are appreciated.
Thanks

Yes, you can upgrade revenue tickets .. if they are booked in a high enough booking class (Y, B etc). When you're booking on delta.com look for an upgradeable fare, or call the CO / NW / AF 1-800 number and ask to get upgraded with miles.
