Upgrade class 客艙提升實例

如果大家唔介意分享你地Upgrade class 既經驗,歡迎留言,待多啲人可以有實例參考啊~~謝謝你的支持


Case 1
Blogrosak* ~ 美國
我早排waitlist PE upgrade Business,到出發那一天還沒有confirm
但是,最後是在機場臨上機之前upgrade 的。用了20000 miles,飛美國西岸。

BlogEden的補充
Two more points to add:
Successfully being upgraded by using mileages depending on:
1/ the loading of the flight i.e. how many revenue tickets were sold...
2/ the status of Marco Polo Club i.e. a Gold member can jump a Green memeber's queue.

Case 2
MIC MIC~ 澳洲
我在2013七月透過Macro Polo國語熱線成功訂了下列econ行程:
2014復活節出發:
HKG->SYD (STOP) CX;
SYD-> BRE(STOP) (自費, QF HK$1,000左右/人連稅)
BRE->CNS (STOP) QF;
CNS->HKG CX
每人45,000里數, 另加TAX $29XX。

到了10月,我上CX網見到同一出發日子有商務位,於是留言Macro Polo。等了2工作天,廣東話CS回覆並成功更改為下列「商務+特選經濟+經驗」行程:

SYD->ADL (轉機) (CX商務)
ADL->SYD (stop) (QF商務)
SYD-> BRE(STOP) (QF econ,自費票所以沒有更改);
BRE->CNS (STOP) (QF商務);
CNS-> HKG (CX特選經濟)

需要重新付TAX每人$30XX, 另加行程更改費USD120/人,補每人35,000里數。大約6星期退回第一次付了的TAX款。

我明白付多了USD240兼坐唔盡每程商務「好像唔抵」。但太太都認為我們不會隨便買商務機票,所以用兌換方法來體驗是最好。

另外我想多謝Macro Polo那位CS (「阿標」)耐心和有善地幫我們更改和搜尋機位,並mark好兩程cx seat位。

反而國語cs小姐態度真係不敢恭維,而且講錯redeem ticket如果涉及其他航空公司,該行程需要我們自行聯絡,cx不能處理任何更改。實情係「阿標」完全幫我更改到,只是不能mark seat位。

  1. I'm planning to buy two Premium Economy tickets from HKG to YVR for my parents. (End of May 2014)
    I want to upgrade them to business class with my own asiamiles (they don't have asiamiles, but their names are on my list), is it possible?
    Is it common to wait till last minute to confirm if the business seats are available for upgrade?
    Are there ways to secure my business class tickets asap?

    2. @Yau: for upgrade, you need a good travel agent to let you hold a PEY booking as long as possible, Then you need to call MPC to find the business class seats or waitlist. Pls be reminded that you have to book W or R class PEY in order to eligible for upgrade. If you have MPC status ï.e. MPC Gold or above, it definitely helps you clear your waitlist faster.

      P.s.: why not let your parents be a Asia Miles members? Don't waste their mileages fr HKG to YVR almost a TPE tkt!

  2. 我老公係MarcoPolo既silver, 佢岩岩飛東南亞係boarding 既時候被換左張新boarding pass. 佢本身買既係PE, upgrade左佢去Biz. 佢都係好遲先book 機票, 經我公司用開既agent, 不過佢飛左咁多次都係第一次被free upgrade. 佢唔知果日班機係唔係好full, 不過佢見到boarding counter 有好多張新既boarding pass, 佢估果班機都好多人有得free upgrade.
