Thanks everyone

Here is the story... on the M fare class, it is indeed offering me $639 buy up each way. But as noted, if you select both, it suddenly goes to $3,209? I could do each one, one at a time, but that still ends up over $5K.

Now it gets interesting...
So my friend went to use his GPUs on my W reservation t his morning. Get this - shows 3 seats available, but when he clicks on the GPU and hits next, it says wait list only. I might have him call later and see what the GS agent says.
