Upgrading Qatar Flights at Easter with BAEC Avios….?

Upgrading Qatar Flights at Easter with BAEC Avios….?

    Hi All……

    Love reading the blog and staying up to date with all things miles and hotels.

    Anyway I have built up a nice 50K of avois recently, and already have a trip booked with Qatar at Easter……IS IT POSSIBLE TO UPGRADE SEATS ON QATAR WITH MY BAEC AVIOS? Man on phone at BA said yesterday said I couldn’t?……But from what I have learnt, I am right to say I can make a new booking though – through Avios Reward search etc.

    Your help and knowledge, will be really appreciated.

    Happy New Year

    Ryan

    Is your existing ticket an award ticket or a cash ticket? If it’s a cash ticket you much have purchased it via BA and it must be in a fare class that is eligible to be upgraded.

    Im not sure BA can use avios to upgrade a cash ticket booked for travel on a partner airline.

    If you have an existing award ticket though, phone agents should be able to upgrade your ticket. Call again?
