Two bookings for same pnr
Hi all I recently tried upgrading my v class sector lhr bkk on April 23rd but received the usual email...we've checked availability...so no luck with the u class upgrade however I noticed I've got 2 bookings on mmb one confirmed v class and one unconfirmed u class
Has anyone had this situation before as I haven't or should I be optimistic that it has a good chance of being confirmed?

spec119 you have been waitlisted for an upgrade. This is not an unusual occurence. I once had 3 flights on a booking with both confirmed and unconfirmed flights due to cancellations and schedule changes. It is very confusing when you first meet it but it is quite logical when you think about it. For a change QR is giving you all available information about your flights not just the current version!
P.S. when all the changes were in order QR even asked If I would like to change the fourth flight on the PNR rather than have to spend over 7 hours in DOH.

spec119 congratulations! Remember to sit back, relax and enjoy the flight.
With regard to the GBP75 you now know the extra cost of a J passenger in airport fees, security charges, lounge costs etc. Makes you think!
As I and many others have frequently said, and probably will as frequently in the future, 'There is no such thing as a free lunch!'

My upgrades departing LHR have always been subject to additional fees. Maybe it is related to the UK's APD?
I've had other upgrades with Qmiles and Qcredits departing SIN, DOH, JFK - didn't have to pay any additional $.
Wonder if there are any other sectors where additional fees or taxes are required with upgrades?
As it happens, I'll be departing LHR on 23 April too! Called up for the upgrade, they put me on waitlist, and it was all sorted within a couple of hours! ^
Enjoy your flights to BKK!

I would think it's 100% related to APD and nothing at all to do with airport fees, lounge costs etc.
I don't even know if they are QR destinations, but two mentioned in similar conversations over on the EK forum are Lebanon and Pakistan.
