Virgin Atlantic - bidding for an upgrade?
I think this has been covered before so please forgive me!
My wife and I are travelling to Havana on Premium Economy - daytime flight, so thought PE would be ok.
Flying back from Jamaica in PE - overnight flight.
The virgin website is offering the 'old' bid thingy to get an upgrade to Upper class. By default the bid for the outbound is £675, the default return flight bid is £710. Our course they are teasing me to bid more as the site is suggesting the chances of getting any upgrade on either leg at these bids is slim (not zero, but slim)
Any advice? we're not made of money and we aren't taking a huge amount of luggage (3 bags between us). I wonder if best to keep the outbound flights at PE and use our financial firing power (such as it is) to bid on the return flights seeing as they are overnight. I don't tend to sleep so well in reclining seats and the flat bed appeals.
What does the panel think in your experience? London flights.
