As of right now, there is availability in the fare class we booked to fly Saturday 11/19 instead via LAX on UA839. Upgrade list became visible earlier this evening and shows 9/48 available in J, zero available in PY. If we switched into this flight we would rank #7 and #8. Make the change with one day delay for the chance of the upgrade? or take the loss and suck it out in economy on the direct flight?
#7 and #8 for 9 seats available will be 50/50 chance. If you are okay with sitting on PY, you can take that chance because there will be a few upgrades from PY to J and PY seats will become available.
Good luck.
