Pay to upgrade

[gerald 0]

Maybe a silly thing to ask .... but if you buy a ticket from london to Bangkok with Eva for around £450.00 return, could you pay at the airport to get an upgrade to 1st class on the out flight ..... anyone ever done this

You can do it on Thai subject to availability , cost me about £300 to upgrade to business one way.

Why don't you call EVA and get it from the horses mouth instead of second hand opinion ?

Don't see why it can't be done - subject to availability of course. I managed to wangle a free upgrade to Business Class on QANTAS once.

On Eva you can usually upgrade one class higher than the class you have booked. On my recent trip in Jan business class was showing full for the reurn leg so i booked Evergreen deluxe.

 

On check in was still showing full but was told i could upgrade at the gate if seat became available. One did but the upgrade was a hefty 35000 thai baht and they wouldn't negociate.

 

With eva it all seems to depend on the time of the year. Last June i booked a business class return for £1075 and they were advertising first class for just £1300 at the same time
