No need to cancel the upgrade. The sponsor should receive the GPU back if the BusinessFirst segment doesn't clear - regardless of if the domestic (non-BusinessFirst domestic service) segment falls before or after the int'l segment. He may need to call UA to have the GPU redeposited, but it shouldn't be a problem.
