I agree there. I didn't see availability for ORD-BRU and LHR-ORD for a trip SF0-TXL (Tegel Airport, Berlin), but I got the upgrades as soon as I called.
Flying BRU-TXL outbound via AA codeshare on SN (Brussels Airlines), returning via a TXL-LHR AA codeshare on BA.
Unfortunately, the SFO segments are MD80... (I think)
