How can I upgrade my flight-only booking to a higher cabin?

Last updated: 23 April, 2024

You can upgrade flight-only bookings made directly with us any time before you travel, subject to seats being available on your flight and the rules associated with your ticket. You can do this with tickets booked directly with us by logging in to Manage My Booking and selecting 'Upgrade'. The cost of upgrading will vary depending on the destination, cabin and the ticket you originally bought.

If you're not able to make the changes you need within Manage My Booking and you bought your ticket on ba.com or over the phone with our Customer Services team, please contact us. If you upgrade a Reward flight at the airport on the day you travel using a debit or credit card to pay the upgrade amount, it won’t be possible to earn Avios and Tier Points on that transaction.
