Just checked "My Itineraries" and found that one of my upcoming segments (requested e500 upgrade) has been upgraded while I'm waitlisted on the other. My 72 hour window as a 1P doesn't start for another 12 hours so somehow this upgrade request seems to be mistakenly processed within the 1K window. My status with UA, unfortunately, still reads Premier Executive.
Anyone else ever experience this? One thought is that I have already confirmed (via a sponsored CR-1) upgrades on my outbound flights two days from now - I wonder if UA is treating me like a 1K in this case as a result. Thoughts?
