There are different A* business pass classifications behind the scenes (i.e. flying to cover a trip is higher priority than flying back to base after a trip) but that all takes place automatically behind the scenes - agents don't manually decide what subcategory of UPGE a crewmember is. Again, the key point here is that based on my fuzzy memory there is no A* pass category for deadheading crew that jumps revenue pax requesting upgrades.

While I'm not certain, I don't believe that any deadheading crew is entitled to NRPS in the F/J cabin. They confirm Y and standby for F/J. If we are talking about other official company business (not deadheading to/from a trip) then I am certain that no non-management crewmembers get to confirm F/J. They confirm Y and standby for F/J (UPGE/UPGET and after all revenue).
