    Hi,

    Any one any ideas of the cost of upgrading from economy to premium economy on a longhall flight with BA,

    It won't let me do it on line so I will have to wait till I get to the airport to findout.

    It is from Capetown to London.

    Done some searching and I have paid for Exit seats in Economy.

    Should have more room than premium economy (World traveler plus)
    and there are only 2 seats in the row.

    It'll vary on the route, what space (if any) is available..frankly, there is no magic number.

    Checking the most recent posts on a thread like this on frequent flyer sites can be a good resource.

    how did you book your flights?

    I booked the flights with BMI and when BA took them over I was transferred to a BA flight.

    As a result I could not upgrade on-line.

    I got sorted in that I paid to get exit row tickets in economy. They had one set of seats which had just 2 seats which was great.

    100 Sterling for 2 but at least should get a nights sleep.


    Thanks everyone for all the help.
