Upgrades on OWE
Can I upgrade my OWE ticket from business to first since the South African Rand has dropped by 40% since I bought my ticket and have begun my journey?My trip is as follows;JNB-NLA-surface- LUN-LGW-DXB-BOM-BKK-HKG-YVR-JFK-MIA-MCO-LGW-LUN-JNB.
I have already done JNB-NLA-LUN-LGW. So can I upgrade now after paying the difference? Please let me know.

Yes, I believe you can do this any time and with no penalty. The fare rules allow for this. You can find the rules on my Unofficial oneworld Info Desk / oneworld Explorer RTW / Rules & notes.

please also note that you have to pay the difference in terms of "Rand".
since both your tickets are priced in Rand.
so in rand terms there is no difference in Oct vs now. but in US$ terms there is.
