1K on a W fare. 5 PP left, 15 Polaris left, flight is 9 hours and in 3 weeks.
I want to buy up to PP and apply PlusPoints to get into Polaris but am worried that I'll end up in RN and be stuck in PP.
Any definitive policy on this? Any way an agent would be able to tell me?
The official policy is that you're not supposed to be able to apply PlusPoints to an itinerary that was upgraded Into PP. It does sometimes work, mind you. But with only 15 seats left, three weeks out, I don't think it matters -- I suspect you're not getting upgraded anyway. What flight is it / what's the Polaris inventory?
