The OP wrote that he was "Buying AC B-fare, planning to use SWU

Strictly speaking, an AC upgrade certificate itself is as useful on a LH-operated flight as an AC in-flight duty-free shopping coupon.

To whom exactly would he hand it in? The AC agent while they are talking over the phone? Or to the LH agent at the airport (who will have no reason to even request it and also have absolutely no use for it)?
