Related question for me as the option to upgrade has now appeared for me again (after 12 months, was previously AP, then standard). Will I still receive the 5k bonus Avios if I now upgrade again? The Ts and Cs only cover the scenario of awarding one Avios welcome bonus – ie. if you close your account then you aren’t eligible for 2 years. But in this instance I haven’t closed it, simply downgraded and now planning to re-upgrade? Anyone done this and know?
You do not get any bonus for upgrading.
Wrong, you do sometimes get offered a bonus for upgrading.
