Rev-ups do NOT show as upgrades on the PDA website.

One question I have that was not resolved by this first-hand experience: Will the Rev-up fee allow an upgrade of the domestic connecting flight, subject to availability (in Z class)? In this case, the passengers (both Silvers) cleared EUA at about 24 1/2 hrs before departure on the connecting flight into IAH, so it was a moot point for this trip.
Sorry...I thought I had done this one already. I'll do it now.

To answer the bits I know from my recent experience, through-passengers DO get their additional flights upgraded, subject to the availability. At least that is how I understood it when the agent was reading the GG REVUP bit to me over the phone. And I definitely did not show on the website.
