Economy plus for friend?
Friend and I are both traveling to Japan but on separate flights/tickets. I bought both of the tickets using my credit card and they both show on my reservations page. Is it possible for me to get my friend into E+ seats for her flights as well?

As a premier plat, I doubt you would have any trouble - definitely call. If you don't succeed the first time, hang up and call again.

I have my doubts, but agree that HUCAing might work.

He's not going to get her moved up on the first call, and he's not going to get her moved up on the second call, and he's not going to get her mo--- -- -- ---!

She's not on his flight for one thing, and Premier Platinum is the next below GS and 1K, and they can't get their bud's or main squeezes upgraded on flights that they don't fly on.

Unless you have "Fur shur poop" I wouldn't be advising anyone - ANYTHING re calling and asking for a FREEBEE, and if not granted, HUACA!
