Would the ORD Polaris closure be a valid reason to change to another connection city without a change fee. (Keep in mind that many change fees still exist for flights not originating in the US, including my ticket).

Would love insights before I call UA.

I called again today, and the agent changed it without a problem. And yes, the upgrade space was already available.
