are you talking nominee (person receiving) or nominator (giving)

i have no clue about nominator

but nowhere does it say nominee must be ap

gate agents are more than happy to change ff at gate, but obviously this should be done after an e upgrade clears. believe it or not gate agents there to help, there's no reason for them to care about ff (unless otp is in jeopardy) and it doesn't take much effort

so wait you can nominate someone for an eupgrade, and you could actually credit to different ff on that flight?
