AMS-FLR €98 last friday morning. I didn't take it and ended up being op-upped.

BLQ-AMS €59 last sunday evening. I didn't take it and ended up accepting a reroute with a direct flight to LIS due to overbooking.

If it's voluntary, it's €150. Only involuntary denied boarding because of overbooking would entitle one to a compensation of €400 (not €250 because the distance is superior to 1500km).

GRU-AMS tomorrow 384 EUR from N to C with 19 (!) seats available. Took it.
Via Twitter KLM had offered the same upgrade for 80.000 miles - happy I declined that one.
