With about 9 hours to go til the flight, the upgrade still hasn’t cleared. LH call center confirmed that my waitlist is correctly showing. What’s going on?
Would Lufthansa let F go out with empty seats and not clear upgrades off the Waitlist?
That is perfectly normal for IAH-FRA! Only once have I cleared prior to the gate. They will clear all UG requests before boarding starts. With F6 and on a Monday I'd say this is a near certain upgrade, enjoy!
