Which United-upgrade option seem to be cheaper? Online, or at the airport just before check-in? Im flying from NYC (EWR) to Orlando in December.
Thanks!

It is my understanding the UFC's (upgrades for cash) are dynamic, they can change depending on loads, original fare paid, dates, equipment, etc.
IME: I had a "buy up" offer at booking for (IIRC) 200-300, and the same flight UFC at check-in for under 100.
I had another flight a few weeks later to buy up for under 100... but UFC at checkin for over 200.
FWIW, I cleared UDU on both flights.
