Hello all, I'm flying ORD to GRU and have successfully upgraded to Polaris using PlusPoints - what a benefit when the seat is listed at over $10K! I've had a great run of upgrades, which is fantastic! This also means I've nearly run out so now have 20 PlusPoints remaining. The return flight shows lots of Polaris seats but I need 40 to request upgrade. Is there any way around this or do I just need to suck up economy (!) and wait for 1K requalification and start again when the PlusPoints arrive? Thanks for any advice on this.

* edited to add; is the 787-10 United Premium Plus seat worth the 20 points?
