How much to upgrade?
Hi,
I'm travelling to LAX on the 26th (Dec.) from London Heathrow. (LHR-LAX-LHR). How much will I have to pay on the counter to upgrade?
How much on BA from WTP to club world?
What about Virgin.. How much from Premium Economy to Upper Class?
Thanks in advance.

The cost of paid upgrades usually depend on your initial fare. Have you tried calling BA and Virgin with these questions?

BA sometimes advertise upgrades at check-in, usually on oversold flights. I've only seen them for WT to WT+ from SFO and IAD where the amounts vary between $150 and $250.
You can pay onboard to upgrade to CW if space is available, expect to pay around £600 or more one way from WT+.
