So, it depends on the scenario which is best.
So I've been on the waitlist for both RUCs on a transcon delta one flight for over a month now. I've watched the D1 seat map drop from 12 to only 2 seats now. I can't believe these seats are even selling on this flight. I have a feeling others using RUCs have cleared before I have. Is there any way to find out if a seat is taken from an RUC upgrade versus a paid D1 ticket? I thought I would have cleared weeks ago like I have previously done.
