If so can this be done online, or do I need to call?
if you have no status how will you obtain the upgrade following your confirmation of the flight?
i just did this today our of SMF. We are Golds but I still had to go up to the gate counter and asked to be added to the waitlist and than upgrade. Had I not had status I would have been unable to obtain the UG unless I paid for it or had a ticket class that I could use miles to upgrade with.
