Those who get cheap PE upgrade prices

Hi
I've been keeping my eye on the upgrade price on my outbound flight for a while now and it's never got below 250 it's currently 275.
Now I'm not sure how many unsold seats but on the seat map there are over 30 that haven't been pre selected.
Will they drop the price? If those are unsold surely they will?
Any tips on getting a cheap upgrade?
Xx

Outbound will always be expensive as before you can even begin to buy the seat you have to pay the APD tax increases which are £75 per ticket - so basically he first 100 of your upgrade goes in taxes outbound

Dont worry. This is on one of my Bookings for this year to go from PE to UC

Fancy an upgrade?

Available between MCO and LGW from £3487.59 per person

Tailor your upcoming flight with us

With more space to relax, an exquisite dining experience and a whole host of fabulous little extras, how could you resist upgrading with us?

Mmm, let me think for a minute about 'how can I resist'

Ouch - that is less than £200 that I paid for 2 flights UC return! Bet you are pulling at the leash to buy an upgrade at this price

I wouldn't be. I have paid £43 and £81. I won't go much more than that especially as it's not a patch on what it used to be.

Now, if I'd found those prices... I've only flown upper once, I'd love my DD to experience it too.
