DOH to Munich, Thursday night flight, received cash upgrade offer of 2,000 QAR the day before the flight (approximately $540 USD).
Berlin to Doha, Monday overnight, received cash offer upgrade of 2,000 QAR the week before the flight (approximately $540 USD).
As both flights are 6 hours long I passed. My rule of thumb for paying for upgrades is overnight and at least 8 hours long to be able to get a decent sleep.

If this included Al Safwa I would actually consider this , think its decent but given the lack of lounge I would pass
Again I think this is a good price, Usually they can still set seats for you on the phone if you have status

Offer at check in to upgrade from J to F on BKK DOH on the A380 for €960. That seems crazy to me. I can’t imagine anyone paying that much for one sector when J is already so good and you won’t even get to enjoy Al Safwa. The J cabin is also completely full so I wouldn’t be surprised if they end up having to op up people when they could have sold upgrades if they were willing to sell them at a reasonable price.

QR's experience may be that they are able to sell enough upgrades at prices that you/we might consider unreasonable that they'll continue doing so. Whether or not the price is unreasonable, of course, depends on whether they can sell the upgrades at the price they ask.

May I know what determines the price of the upgrade? Why is it more expensive for QR15? Is it because the aircraft is the new A350-1000 and is fitted with the new Qsuite?

May I know what determines the price of the upgrade? Why is it more expensive for QR15? Is it because the aircraft is the new A350-1000 and is fitted with the new Qsuite?

Today I got an "Special Upgrade Offer", cash, from business to first (after checking in online - ??) for my tomorrows flight BKK - DOH. Despite trying heavyly to upgrade this flight since February (when I booked it) intend to use my QCredits and / or QMiles, I did feel "very special" (ironical) to get an cash upgrade offer asking approx. 1000 EUR (!!) per person for upgrading one leg......it´s ridiculous.
But the most funny thing is, that this offer was withdrawn a few hours later, hahaha - I just can laugh ;-), because it seems someone really did pay that amount.
What is strange as well, is the fact that now 7 seats of the first are status "blocked by airline". Maybe some Op-Ups coming, or does it reflect that 7 (!!) pax did use the cash upgrade?
