So, do I call to see if they can split the PNR and change my upgrade from miles to Plus Points before check-in, or after? Thanks!
How many people are on the WL? If the chance is not great, split the reservation, remove MUA, buyup to Premium Plus and request PP upgrade for your wife.
If the chance is great, UA may clear the upgrade list at T-36 h. Your question will become mute.
Good luck.
