GPU good for both international + domestic legs even with 38 hrs in between!
just flew from HKG to SFO and had a 38 hours stopover at SFO before my final destination EWR. Used GPU for the first leg HKG-SFO and intended to use a regional upgrade for the domestic leg SFO-EWR since I had a 38 hours stopover at SFO after I landed SFO, but the 1K desk told me that I didn't need to use the regional upgrade cert for the domestic leg since the GPU for HKG-SFO could cover the domestic leg even though there is 38 hours time interval in between. This is something I had never heard of. Did I miss that in the past or is it the new benefit after the merger?
