I remember reading that Ulti came with some confirmed upgrade certificates (or whatever they are called). Has this been discontinued? No one seems mentioning them as an Ulti benefit. Many airlines have such benefit for their top tier (even below Ulti), so I assume AF followed the trend.
If you have the patience and time, just go back in this thread and they were announced and discussed. 2 upgrades certificates/year, valid for the Ultimate member or one of his/her listed companion. It was introduced this year. Valid from Y or W to J. Very easy to use (very few restrictions) and guaranteed instant upgrade at the time of booking. This is certainly a nice benefit. One can regret it's only 2.
