Do these first class upgrades fill up fast? I would not be able to check in till late tomorrow for a 7am flight on Thursday?
I don't think it will fill up by upgrades as pretty much every seat blocked for elites is empty and there are still 11 seats open up front. 3 are showing in the U bucket

I don't believe the credit can be used for it. It also depends on what fare class you are on as only Value and full flex can purchase at OLCI. Otherwise you have to pay at the gate.
