$629 Offer in app to BF, accepted. Booked into ZN. Interestingly, when checking in bags at the kiosk I was offered an upgrade to GF for $829. Having never sat in GF, I seriously considered it, but $1500+ total seemed a bit absurd to not be getting the PQD/PQMs and I declined. I wouldn't have thought that you would get a check in offer for GF on a paid upgrade though. Anybody else seen this?

Generally speaking, double upgrades is a big no-no with UA, but they do allow it with cash upgrades.
