Any idea what might be the problem here? I'm not sure my TA will know why the upgrade failed. Fare basis is definitely H (HL9MIN).

I'm definitely going to call UA about this, but is there anything specific/special I should tell them, especially if I get a clueless CSR?

Thanks in advance!
Others have reported that disappearing waitlists were triggered by their upgrade clearing. Call and ask. If you get a clueless CSR, politely hang up and try again.
