While on the plane, got notification that my upgrade for Tuesday 3/26 MRY-LAX had cleared (pretty far in advance!). My assumption is that they oversold coach and moved me up to free up my e+ seat.
You got a 48-hour CPU which is the normal gold window (which is what your profile says you are - UA Gold). It wasn't "early"?! Sunday to Tuesday is 2 days or 48 hours.
