You choose whether you're willing to blow the certificate just for the 1-hour flight, or you don't use the cert on that itinerary.

There's a ton of good info and tips accumulated over the years in the respective GUC and RUC threads:

The Official - GLOBAL UPGRADE CERT success thread - Yay! I got it!

https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/delt...-upgrades.html

that plus the DL site about certificates would be research time well spent
