I know this is one of the hardest upgrades, but being on a Tuesday night and P9, I have some tiny shot, right?

I would say you have a good shot on the outbound.... though that P fare is showing $2400 o.w. which is very attractive. Not sure how many they will release in that bucket, but I could see P being available until J=8-10. Did you purchase a W fare when cheaper fare classes were available? Looking up SFO-SIN-SFO on that date is showing L fare availability at $904 r.t. W is only $210 more each way.... I would say this is the right choice, even though you are risking a couple hundred bucks each way on it.

Good luck.
