Can you use miles to upgrade an award ticket?

No frequent flyer program allows upgrading of award tickets using miles.

For SQ, you cannot upgrade commercial tickets to Suites on A380 using *A miles and some *A redemption tables make reference to that in their footnotes (e.g. Lufthansa).

No, you have to cancel original award and book new one in the higher class.

I don't think this is true any more. I have the option to upgrade a LHR-SIN flight in December to Suites - though at 130K miles Standard rate I'm not doing it!

Apologies. I amended my post reflecting that I meant you can't use *A miles to upgrade to Suites.

You can indeed use Krisflyer miles and upgrade for Saver and Standard conditions to Suites.
