Interesting sidebar for all that fly this route.
Used to be
one flight number LAX-MEL-LAX of UA 815/816.
Numbers seemed to have changed a couple weeks back to those posted.
So NOW anyone using a One segment upgrade certificate (lots are out there) cannot use it to MEL as flight number CHANGES.
One segment upgrades used to be good on 2 segment flights, as long as flight number was the same.
Oddly miles earned to not differ much at all by adding the 500 miles minimum segment.
