A single RPU can upgrade all eligible flights on either side of the stopover; upgrading the entire itinerary requires multiple RPUs.

They are telling me that because this is a domestic itinerary, it's 4 hours, not 12 hours. I asked them about the Profile for RPUs, but they kept saying the same thing.

Have things changed? Does anyone have the Profile? ...
It has always (starting in the PMUA days) been 4 hours for RPUs / "domestic/Region 1"

BTW anything referencing Region 1 is out of date, concept no longer exists.
