Looking For a PPS-Sponsored Upgrade...

[SuperFlyBoy]

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone is willing to sponsor an upgrade using KF miles, in trade for instruments on other airlines...

TIA!

Swaps between different FF instruments are better conducted in the General Forum, as they do not concern how most KrisFlyer members might want to earn or redeem their miles. I'm therefore moving this topic to the General Board.

I guess OP was too impatient to wait for a response from the member of the SQTalk admin team to whom he sent an inquiry?

Isn't it LH miles could be used for upgrades on SQ flight as well?

Thank you.

Was going to use my own miles, as flight was wide open earlier, but suddenly showing not possible, so therefore need the PPS status to (hopefully) clinch the upgrade...

Yes, as a Star Upgrade, but only in certain classes of travel.

See: http://www.lufthansa.com/online/port...en&cid=1000390

Also, quoted from a "pop-up" window:

"Special upgrade terms of ANA, Asiana Airlines, Air New Zealand, SAS Scandinavian Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Tap Portugal and Thai Airways International

* Upgrades are possible for flights operated by ANA (NH), Asiana Airlines (OZ), SAS Scandinavian Airlines (SK), Singapore Airlines (SQ), Air New Zealand (NZ), Tap Portugal (TP), Thai Airways International (TG) and United (UA), not in the case of NH, OZ, SK, SQ, TP, TG and UA marketing flight numbers*
* An upgrade is possible from Business Class booking classes C, D (and also J with ANA and Singapore Airlines and Z with ANA), as well as from the Economy booking classes Y and B, and also E, O, U with NZ. Upgrades with SAS are only possible from booking classes Y, B, S.
* Only eUpgrades, no paper form"

You can also use your e-upgrades on SQ, if SEN.

Upgrade priority is determined by the passenger's status, not the sponsor.

Thanks - noted this!

However, I think for the return I might still be interested in a swap, so anyone interested in UA SWU's or other items, let me know.
