Upgrade sponsor thread

[onthecheap]

Can't pretend to know anything about it, so figure I will ask... I don't know what level I am at with aeroplan, I imagine the very lowest tier. I am looking at taking a Tango plus flight from Vancouver to Halifax, is there any certificates that allow upgrades on a Tango flight? Thanks

[zkzkz]

If anyone happens to be on AC865 this Friday I would be eternally grateful for a donated cert. I'm open to any reasonable suggestion for how to show my appreciation...

There are certs, but I believe they are only made available to status customers. For a Tango Plus flight, you would need someone who is on the same flight as you to gift you a SSWU cert, and those are hot commodities at this time of year, so not impossible, but not likely.

My wife and I will be flying YYZ-FCO on Oct 10th on AC 890 and FCO-YYZ on Oct 26th on AC 891. Would be eternally grateful to anyone flying on these routes with a couple of certs to spare

I will be flying from YYZ-> SFO on 13th July (AC 755) and back on 18th July (AC 736) and would be willing to part with NA or SWU possibly ... I will update the wiki appropriately ...

Why no SSWUs? Seems to me you don't use those certs anyhow.

I've added my next few Air Canada flights to http://acupgrades.wikispaces.com/... My flight pass is only good for T+ flights, so I've got a few SWU's to spare.

Willing to sponsor an upgrade on 2 of those 6 segments with an SWU.

Well since you seem so interested in my cert usage and supply MG ... Not only do I not use them - I do not have any Did not choose any in my package and only expect to get them when my 40/45K (whatever it is) arrives in the mail ... am also waiting for 60K but since this trip will be the first certs I use this year and I have already booked Lattitude and upgraded - SSWU are not a concern

Does that satisfy your feminine curiosity?

Maybe you should worry more about choosing a "DO" location than my certs??

[Karlitos]

I am E and have SSWUs for both legs and wonder if some kind SE on either of those flights would be willing to sponsor me as a companion at the 7 day window. I've never asked for this before but understand it can be done.

I'll post on the wiki site, thanks in advance!

I'm travelling on T+ on the next segments:
Aug 10 FRA-YYZ AC877
Aug 23 YYZ-LHR AC848

Would be grateful if someone could upgrade me, especially on the YYZLHR one as it is overnight

[Seat13F_AC_CRJ]

I am E and flying on SSWU fare with my own cert. Flight currently shows I=5.

I am looking for an SE on this flight to call for me at the 7-day window. If said SE is on an SWU fare... I can oblige.

Just bumping this thread to remind others of this site:
http://acupgrades.wikispaces.com/

I wonder if it should be added to the FAQ? Not sure if it's used enough / successful enough?

This thread picks up steam in January and February when people have extra certs that they see they won't use.
