Dumb question: Upgrading JAL metal booked via AA Codeshare
Hi folks,
Sorry in advance if this is a dumb question or if it should be in the AA section.
My girlfriend and I have a mileage run / mini vacation from JFK-NRT-CKG in early 2016 on Japan Airlines metal marketed by AA (all AA flight numbers).
I recently noticed that JAL airlines allows a Y -> C upgrade for 30k miles. I currently do not have any JAL miles but could quickly get some through SPG's 1:1 transfer with JAL.
Since this is a flight on JAL metal (even though I purchased through AA) will I be able to upgrade the tickets using JAL miles? I just want to make sure this is doable before I start transferring them from SPG to JAL mileage bank.
Thanks for the help!
