Thank you. I am well aware that my only option to changing the flights that I have booked would be to incur a change fee under most circumstances. I am also well aware of a contract, the contract of carriage, and the understanding that purchasing a ticket according to the fare rules binds me to those terms and conditions.

It will walk your though the whole process and you can end up with your "paid upgrade" in F.
I was unaware that was available on the website, thanks for pointing it out. I like that they allow you to change the class of service for each segment (I would object to paying for F on DTW-FNT, but I'll consider it for SAN-DTW, lol) I still begrudge the fact that they charge a change fee for what is strictly a class-of-service upgrade (i.e., this is literally the equivalent to an e-checkin upgrade, or upgrading using miles, neither of which hit you with a change fee when purchased).
