The upgrade for HKG-GUM and HNL-ORD cleared but then HNL-ORD got put back to economy later on. Called united and they said because there is a segment in between that requires SWU, therefore I would need 2 regional upgrade. So, is what the agent said right?

I am just wanting to know what the right answer is and not necessarily force an agent to bend the rule. Thanks!
1 RPU only. Call another agent and try again.
