Does my cash upgrade refund if my miles upgrade waitlist triggers?
Hi!
I'm taking a cross-country flight for work, and got booked into a basic economy seat. I want to upgrade and have multiple options available.
I am able to use miles + cash to get on the waitlist for first class, which I did. However, I have little faith in getting off the waitlist. So instead of waiting in basic economy thinking that I'll get bumped up, I am thinking I should use cash to upgrade to an economy plus seat.
My question is, in the off chance that there's room and I get into a first class seat, will my cash upgrade to economy plus get refunded?
Thanks!
