But I just noticed as of this morning they subbed back a plain old 757-200 with no flat bed seats. I don't wanna waste my GPU on this dinosaur aircraft; can I withdraw the request now or do I just have to wait and see if it clears at this point? And if I can withdraw the request would I still remain on the upgrade list with lower priority as a potential CPU upgrade?
You can withdraw. One phone agent told me it had to be done at the airport (I don't know if I would have gotten a different answer if I had HUCAed). GAs got it done, though. You will have to be re-added to the list as a CPU... did not happen automatically.
