just booked this itinerary in late march->early april. went for the W class fare (about $500 more) to use systemwide upgrades for both my wife and i.

we're both 1k and it looks like business is about 15% full at this point. i was surprised that the upgrade didn't clear right away - any thoughts on the likelihood of this? they've made so many changes lately it's hard to say if the higher fare is worth the risk.

i may cancel within 24 hours and just book the cheaper fare.
