If this is a CPU eligible route, the rules clearly state that Y/B/Ms clear first.

This makes no sense. A B fare only upgrades for premiers. Also the GPU always carries the status of the redeeming account (1K or higher). Which is irrelevant, because the B fare clears first regardless of status if it's a CPU eligible route and the pax is premier.
