You can call in to upfare to the W fare class (probably about $400 per direction), if you'd like to use an upgrade certificate. Technically that should incur a change fee in addition to the fare differential, but it will usually be waived.

If you wish to do that, be sure to check that PZ has inventory availability beforehand.
