Was able to do it then and my boarding pass was printed with UA*G which allowed lounge access and priority boarding. Don't expect more. The times where I got an op up as 1K on LH are long gone.

So long

OPUPs on LH happen and LH values 'fare' much more than status. UA*G in a high fare class has a very decent chance of LH OPUPs.
