Though surely will go through DFW/MIA again in future - but those will be South American destinations - so I guess this whole upgrade thing is irrelevant (Central America only).
I'll be happy with any MCE upgrades for the short SEA-PHX-MEX routing. (Put in my Alaska #, so i see / chose a 'preferred' seat - which I know, is just location, still good to get off faster for the short 1 hour connection) I'll consider any upgrade beyond that wholly unexpected.
Did you end up getting the upgrade? I’m wondering the exact same thing as I’m about to hit AS silver on Dec 29. What the upgrade odds are flying out of LGA (but could potentially do ALB if better)
