First and foremost, it knows about every type of upgrade *except* for Gold Guest Upgrades. Why won't it sell those??
You mean you have found a way to use GGUs at all? My most recent attempt to use one of the nine that I have now accumulated in my account for any number of routings out of PDX yielded almost zero availability out at/near the 330 day frontier...you know, just enough to give AS an argument that promoting them isn't an outright violation of Oregon's Unlawful Trade Practices Act. None on any transcon nonstops or leisure routes, a handful on awkward connections at an exorbitant fare and another few on redeye connections. Helluvajob, you frugal devils.
