I am going to miss those random upgrade chances.

Was bumped from Y to J on a run back from HNL on Dec 3rd due to a swap from a 767 to 764. Nice little your gonna miss plat reminder.

Anyway my wife is on my itenerary as well so can I still seat in E+ If so do I need to call because when I took my reservation to ua.com and tried it showed it as being a chargeable seat.
