How to Convert Amex MR -> Avios -> QMiles
 
Hello Guys,

I am completely new to booking flights with points (even though I am frequently flying for 12 years) . I have around 230k MR points on Amex and I have already booked Qatar flight economy class 2 tickets from the Qatar website only.

Is there a way I can use my 230k MR to upgrade economy class to Business Class? as Qatar is not a partner with Amex (In USA) so can't Transfer to QMiles . I can Transfer to something like Avios but How to use Avios to Upgrade Qatar flights already booked through Qatar Airline.

Ill really appreciate your help. !

QR flight booked with cash or QR ff miles?
Anyway you are not able to use avios to upgrade a QR flight.'
Oneworld does not have an alliance cross airline upgrade system.
AA-BA-IB have an upgrade system outside of OW.
