Thumbs down QR: No upgrades with miles from C to F

Very disappointing: Was informed that upgrades from paid C to F are not possible on QR. Truely a big MINUS to their FF program

I agree that it's a minus, but what routes were you looking for?

FRA - DOH is currently on 2-class A333, DOH - BKK and DOH - HKG as well.

Did you consider to fly via LHR to check out the new A340-600?

expertflyer.com tells me that FRA-DOH has a daily flight with F and yes, I was also thinking about going to LHR and taking a flight from there. But not if I have to pay F instead of upgrading with miles....In this case I stick with my beloved TXL departures

I am on QR 24 on 2nd Oct and have a J-class booking. I wanted to get an F seat, but my agent couldn't book one. Is this a two class aircraft?
If not, can one upgrade for cash at the counter?

Which lounge does QR use at FRA?

thanx

QR seems to be feeding incorrect info to Sabre

[KVS Availability Tool 2.4.0/Platinum - Sabre: ITN/US-AXC1]
Code:
FRA  Frankfurt Metro / Frankfurt Int'l DE = FRA HHN [EDDF]
DOH  Doha QA [OTBD]
MON  02 Oct 2006

Carrier   Flight From Depart    To   Arrive    A/C  St Availability
--------- ------ ---- --------- ---- --------- ---- -- -------------------------------------- 

QR        26     FRA  15:20     DOH  22:25     332  0  F4 P4 A4 O0 C4 J4 D4 I4 Y4 B4 L4 M4 Q4 K4
QR        24     FRA  22:30     DOH  05:35 +1  332  0  F4 P4 A4 O4 C4 J4 D4 I0 Y4 B4 L4 M4 Q4 K4
It is showing 4 available seats in F on a 2 class plane!

At least LH isn't selling seats in a non-existent cabin:
