No reason I can imagine why it can't be done, the question is just how to do it. Calling exec club ahead of OLCI? Advice please!
I believe not. If you accept the pro-active upgrade in MMB you will be booked in to the "P" fare code which is normally used for WT+ redemptions but is also used for pro-active upgrade sale fares. You cannot MFU a fare in this bucket to J. But you may have more luck than me!
