Cost of E-First Upgrades
How can I determine the cost of an E-First upgrade? NWA's site doesn't have any detailed info, just that you can do this when you use their kiosk to check-in for your flight.
I'm heading to AMS through MSP and back through DTW and we're flying a qualifying class (Q and H).

i don't know the cost, but imho, it's not worth paying to upgrade your TPA-MSP and DTW-TPA segments. you'll get a somewhat wider seat, maybe some more legroom (depends on your Y seat and aircraft type), and free alcohol (but you'll also be getting that on your international segments).
as for your AMS segments, those are not upgradeable using e-upgrades at the kiosk, but on rare occasions, GA's have been known to sell WBC upgrades at the gate for transatlantic flights, usually for $250-500 per seat.

There are currently no international E-First rules applicable to the MSP-AMS portion of your journey, and the program does not currently apply for the return flights out of Europe (since the kiosks are not NWA's).
