Yea... I was thinking about the upgrade order. This is what it shows on United's site:
  1. United Global Services® requests
  2. PlusPoints upgrades and MileagePlus Upgrade Awards
  3. Premier status of the traveler*
  4. Fare class
  5. Chase United MileagePlus Club cardholders and Presidential Plus cardholders
  6. United Corporate Preferred participants
  7. United Chase Cardmembers with $25,000 in annual spending
  8. Date and time of request
Based on this list, it seems like I fall into #2? Bc first its (#1) Global Services members, then (#2) Plus Points upgrades and MileagePlus upgrades of all status levels above me (so everyone bc I have no status), and then me? Am I missing something in how I'm interpreting the order?
