Others here know better than I, but my understanding is that you usually have only four ways to get in Aloha F:

1) buy it -- with the AAA discount, the difference between Y and F can be as little as $500 RT. You might want to check that.

2) award ticket, either with Aloha or partner miles.

3) upgrade with Aloha miles.

4) same day upgrade for around $250 each way (when available).

So, there's your quick, dirty and possibly inaccurate answer. It stands ready for correction by the AQ regulars.
