Interesting, so they added restrictions to the MVPG guest upgrade certificates to eliminate discount fare upgrades, and then add instant upgrades on Value fares for MVP's. So...the end result is an attempt to sell more higher (instant upgrade) coach fares...
Interesting...

Seems AS added two fare classes to this as before it was Y only and now S&B.

Still need to be Gold or higher for full Value Fare gamut (YSBMH)
