ON is the what one looks for when upgrading from a paid Business ticket into First:

Just when I thought I was getting somewhere. OK so I have expert mode enabled...and I SWEAR that when I first did this last week that searching for RPU award was a possibility (in the fare preference - upgrade type drop down box-RPU was there) but now do not see such a thing (only thing there is MUA).
It also appears that now when I put if my flight - ie IAH to LAX (or anywhere) I get a list of available flights and then I have to click on EACH ONE to see if there is any R inventory available (and so far have found 0 on any)??
Please tell me I am missing something important here.
