Using GUC on KE

Hello,

I’ve searched through this forum and I couldn’t find an answer. Maybe you guys can help me out.

I found a convenient flight that gets me back into Boston at 10:35am. I plan on buying a B fare on DL and using a GUC since it’s on KE metal (I can’t use a mileage upgrade). I called DL last night and the agent wanted to sell me the KE Prestige ticket rather than tell me how a GUC works on KE. The DL Agent told me there were no seats available at the time. I read through the rules on DL’s website and it says my upgrade has to confirm 24 hours prior to departure.

Does this mean KE might open up seats later on leading up to the 24 hours prior to departure?

I guess worst case, I can sit in the back but I’ll be home 6 hours earlier.

Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
