Does he go ahead and just request the upgrade on the eUpgrade site, or do we have to wait until a certain time since he isn't E or SE? And we are traveling on different bookings. I believe I read that even though I am on a different booking he can still request an upgrade for me which his credits, is this the case? Sorry neither of us have upgraded before so any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
If your father has E50K status (and assuming he's booked into "Premium Economy - lowest", he can request the upgrade exactly at T-5days. The upgrade will be confirmed if there is availability in booking class "R".

The upgrade will cost 21 upgrade credits + a $500 cp-pay.

Same for you, only that your upgrade can only be requested at the airport.
