Hi there! There wouldn't be a change fee if it's for the same flight you would only pay the difference in fare for the higher class of service -Rae

The friends I upfared were non-elite. Maybe that Is why the system was trying to impose the fee. I assume upfaring is far rarer for non-elites. Maybe just for GGU or the sudden need for CoS bonus miles.
