E-upgrade question

Travelling February 29th with mom. I have her listed as a nominee and will request upgrades for us at 7 day window.
Return flight is March6th. The 7 day window to upgrade is February 28th for me,but the nominee list goes to February 29th. Mom is on a latitude fare.

Will I need to wait until I re-nominate mom to my E upgrade account on March 1st to request her upgrade? That will shorten her window for upgrade request by 2 days which is still 24 hours ahead of the E upgrade window

I suspect I know what will happen,have I missed something?

if your mom is on a latitude fare why do you need to wait?

You should have requested an upgrade for her at time of booking as long as you had e-upgrade credits available for 2012 (ie didn't have to wait for your January batch to come in).

I will try that.I have plenty of credits new and expiring. My concern is that the return is in March and she is listed as a nominee to February 29th.Will it work? Will let you know.

added from AC site;

"This list of eUpgrade Nominees can be used for upgrade requests made until February 29, 2012 inclusively."

I don't think you have to have your mom as a nominee if you are travelling together and on same reservation.

You can use your eUpgrade Credits to request an upgrade for yourself as well as for one Travel Companion who is travelling on the same reservation with you.

Thank-you

This was the issue. I had tried to u/g her on my points expiring February 29,2012. Now that the new e-credits are in account,I had no problem doing to u/g.
Should listen to myself,"if you don't like the 1st answer, call again"
