Is it possible to waitlist only for the ATL-LAX and LAX-KOA segments? And if only one clears, will I stay on the waitlist for the other segment?
Thanks!
1. Yes, if there is only one seat, you will not clear off the waitlist with two people on your reservation, unless you call in and split your reservation, and then one of you will clear. Not the worst of ideas for a long itinerary such as yours.
2. Yes you can have the agent apply the cert to only those segments. If you clear one, you will stay on the waitlist for the other. Also if you clear one, you can call in and have it extended to your SJU-ATL flight as well, as long as they are all on the same PNR. Even if you would get it via complimentary upgrade, better to get it early for better seat choice.
