I would think not. I don't think DL has an 'upgrade' policy in the system. Instead, they would have to rebook by canceling their current res, having the miles redeposited in their accounts, and then booking a new F award. The 72 hour rule would prevent them from being able to redeposit the miles. Not sure if a supervisor would be able to override that.
