For the UuA - well given it's not until August 2021 I doubt speed is of the essence, but that is different, you can simply ring up and ask to do the UuA. I wouldn't labour the quote issue, just select amend existing booking and ask to do the upgrade. This is separate from ticketing anyway but the lack of ticketing may mean the call will take a bit longer to complete. This assumes you will definitely UUA and accept the BA fare quote.
Thanks for the quick reply - it isn't that much of an essence, but I have umpteen Chase points burning a hole in my pocket and might as well take what's available while it's available.
As to the quote, your response is fair; the delta is only a little more than my FTV, they already have my money, and I want to take the amended trip at the new fare the original rep locked in.
If I have some time later today I will call Executive Club and see - the flights are on the B789, so getting 2/8 F seats with UuA is probably worth a check.
