Let's say I have a V fare on March 3rd that clears T-6. Takes 10 credits (2014 scheme). Right?

What happens if I get waitlisted and I clear at the gate (I request prior to Feb 28th). Will it take 10 or 15? credits (2015 scheme )

Thanks in advance!
Requests made before March 1 should be based on the 2014 scheme, the reason is eUpgrade credits are taken as soon as you requested the said upgrade. If you clear at the gate, it should still just take that many credits and no more. My recent experience, based on how current AC IT is setup, leads me to think it'll just be like that.

PM me if you want to know the details.
