I fly Lufthansa now-and-again over the Big Pond on the East. I always travel under UA status.

Now, I've gathered bits and pieces from a few other message topics, but let me see if I get this straight. Am I mistaken or is it pretty impossible to upgrade on a UA-codeshare hop across the Atlantic. Even with SWUs?

Under what circumstances would/could an upgrade be considered? I wonder if it would be better to book the entire trip through LH, but would they still accept UA upgrade certs?

Thanks.
