Yeah I checked out ExpertFlyer but didn't realize you needed an account.

AC855 on September 16th if anyone is bored / kind and willing.

Which for me is always haha.

I'm also impressed the OP has recently gotten to 35k but will still hit 100k by year's end, there's only 4 months left to get 65,000 more AQM, 16,250 a month. That's a bit of a daunting task.

Looks wide open to me (at least at the moment), but don't you have to be E50K or higher to upgrade a TATL, unless in Y/B--in which case there is no copay?

Yeah I'm E50K.

Am I correct in saying that E / N are showing no availability for Premium Economy?

The fact that I got your reference means I am an old bumfart. An old UUDDLRLRBAStart bumfart, that is.

O is PE (highest), if I'm not mistaken. Nothing in E or N.

Appreciate that. Guess I'll just try my luck when the E-up window opens.

Does a free Expert Flyer account give you access to find out that information?

No, but it's only $4.99 US per month for the basic version. I consider it money well spent. Good luck with the upgrade!

I figure this is the most relevant thread - what do you guys think are the odds of en eUP clearing YUL-YVR right before new year's? Somewhere between 0 and 0.1%?

30th, I'm surprised to hear though - I'd imagine it'd have a lot of people returning from visiting family from Christmas (like me, lol)
