Any way for UA elite to upgrade EWR-HNL-IAH?
Have flights booked in early may EWR-HNL-IAH (CO 15 to CO 2) as part of the great SEA to EWR fare mistake. I'm a UA 2P.
I don't see any way to upgrade this route with UA miles. Am I missing something? I don't have any CO SWUs obviously.
I know there is revup for these flights, but would the $325 cover both flights or just one?
TIA for the thoughts...

Maybe I'm missing something, but can't you just transfer miles into CO now? You can also match your status. I think it's a sticky thread. Not sure what's so secret.

You're FROM SEA and you missed this one? Yikes...don't bother reading the thread, it will make you sad...seriously...It was also good out of PDX so no positioning flights for me although I didn't see one other FTer on here that went with the EWR-PDX option (or vice versa)...they all seemed to stick with SEA.
