Now in the past I've had this situation taken care of by 1K. Is this something new in the system or is the Supervisor giving me incorrect info. I was told to have this taken care of at the airport. Now my out-station is TLV and they are contract employees and I've had zero luck having anything other than "normal" ticketing type changes taken care of at this station.

Any advice - HUATA?
Call and try again. If they will not clear the upgrade, have them redeposit the GPU to your account. Stay on the line while they do this and don't hang up until it shows in your account. Then either apply the GPU to your reservation online or call back to have it applied. Make sure there is still R space available before you do this!
