One more question for the group: I've called UA and received different answers about this (of course). Am I WLed based on my status (Gold) or my GPU sponsor's status (1K)?
Because that's how it works. "In most cases, the Global Premier Upgrade will be considered used if any segment of an itinerary is upgraded or flown. However, for travel which includes segments in United BusinessFirst or United Global First, the Global Premier Upgrade will be re-deposited if the United BusinessFirst or United Global First segment(s) could not be upgraded."

Priority is based on sponsor's status. In theory.
