Q: if I now want to change the flight to one day earlier (same exact schedule) ... do I lose the money I paid for the upgrade? or get it refunded? or could I get it applied to upgrade on the new flight?
Thank so much - Rob.
[E}xcerpt from the thread's wiki at the top of the thread:
Generally, fees for upgrades are non-refundable if you voluntarily cancel. If UA cancels or fails to provide the upgrade, the fees will be refunded. On voluntary changes, the agent may transfer to the changes flight but that is not standard policy.
