I didn't think 30K miles would be enough, but I'm trying to figure out where on united's site right now it would let me upgrade with miles, so I can double checj. Not seeing an option right now.

SFO-NRT Y fare upgrade to Polaris, 20K miles, no copay

To upgrade, go to your itin and select the Upgrade option, and then select with Miles
