Hi,
We have done this several times, but with Qantas. About 5-6 days before the flight we go to the qantas office at Sanur and tell them we want to fly home biz class. Once they only had one seat left anyway, (which my wonderful Hubby let me have), you pay the money,they change the ticket and off we went.
Last year my girlfriend, wanted to do the same thing, however flying with Garuda, so we went to the offices, again at Sanur, and she had to be placed on a waiting list? After a few phone calls, one of the operators told her to meet up with "someone" at the airport, pay au$300 and they would fix it !!
Day before her flying out, they phoned her again, she paid at their Sanur office and she was ok.(au$300)
Interesting, when I asked Garuda this year if we could just fly Biz class home, they turned me down and said, they never do it.
