Exactly. They have to offer it.

Plus United B and M fares are a lot of times twice the price as CO's B and M fares, why not reward those $1,000 plus tickets with a free instant upgrade.

Now the question is what inventory will the instant upgrade clear out of?

F Bucket?
A Bucket?
NF Bucket?
XF Bucket?
