My understanding is that we still have to check in to get on the standby list even we apply GPU/CPU etc before T-24. Otherwise our names won't be transferred to the Upgrade Standby List, no?
Correct, but if you don't check in, you won't be taking the flight.

The upgrade standby list is only processed at the gate.
