And if you then phone in and try to change that, chances are that it will NOT be possible.
Got it, thanks! I haven't upgraded the 2nd leg yet and since it's not a red-eye I wouldn't do it unless I could get the first leg with it, basically just wanted to make sure if both opened up that the lower combined rate would show in the app.

Pretty wild how much it is to do both separately!

One other question -- is it worth calling to check if an upgrade is available even though none show online? Any data points on that or is that not worth the time?
