Upgrade Priority is:
UG request using a GUC
UG request using a RUC
DM on a Full Y fare
PM on a Full Y fare
GM on a Full Y fare
FO on a Full Y fare
DM on all other fare buckets: B, M, S, H, Q, K, L, U, T, X, V, Award Ticket
PM on all other fare buckets: B, M, S, H, Q, K, L, U, T, X, V, Award Ticket
GM on all other fare buckets: B, M, S, H, Q, K, L, U, T, X, V, Award Ticket
FO on all other fare buckets: B, M, S, H, Q, K, L, U, T, X, V
Medallions with non-status companions requesting upgrades
Is there a published rule anywhere saying that GUCs have priority over RUCs? Also, you've forgotten upgrades paid with miles.
