Hawaiian Airlines is expanding its Business Class auction upgrade service to transpacific routes to South Korea and Japan.
Bid Up by Hawaiian Airlines offers main cabin passengers the option to upgrade to space-available premium seats approximately 10 days before departure.
Customers make a bid and are notified by email 48 hours before their flight if their bid is a successful one.
Passengers get complimentary checked bags with priority baggage handling, fast-track check-in and lounge access.
The airline says more than 55,000 customers have scored upgrades through the Business Class auction service.
"Bid Up has been extremely popular since we first launched the service in 2016, and we’re excited to offer our guests in Japan and Korea a flexible way to experience our business class offering," said Theo Panagiotoulias, SVP of global sales and alliances.
With the addition of Korea and Japan services, the Bid Up upgrade option is now available for all the carrier’s transpacific flights.
