I'm not sure that upsells are such an issue on long-haul international. If UA ever sells that buy-up for under $500, it's an IT mistake.

Looking at next Monday, my guess is that SFO-HND is the only flight with a reasonable chance for a 1K on a W.
Thanks both - yeah, I saw HND with R9. Unfortunately, that gets me into SIN too late. Will also keep an eye on SFO-HKG-SIN, too. Thanks for the assist! Will light some incense to the upgrade gods over the weekend.
