I don't know when that change was implemented but i just discovered it. I thought the premium eco A/W to Business upgrade option with SWU is really nice and is worth getting the message out there
Complete scam and further dilution of the SWU product. I can't believe we've finally reached the day where moving from one portion of economy class to another portion of economy class is considered an "upgrade"
What's next? using SWUs to "upgrade" to exit row or bulkhead seats?
