So we can all get a handle on how they are going to work in the real world, how much they will cost, et c.

Post flight, date, route, original fare basis (T, T+, Lat, etc), and if known, seat inventory (i.e. J9, C7, Z5, I3). If you do upgrade, please also let us know how many empty J seats there were in the cabin, if any. And if you were considering a certificate upgrade, why or why you didn't opt for the LMU.

It would be helpful if this thread could be limited to "just the facts" and no discussion, which could be posted elsewhere. That should make this thread more useful for everyone.

Should anyone want to discuss LMU's further please post in this thread:

From low flex - upgrading with credits would have been 6 plus $125!
Accepted. I was the only one in J. Not a great breakfast but it was conducive to getting some work done!

That's around (a bit better than) the $100/hr threshold that some have as a limit rule here... but I think for them it's from mid-Y fares and not N, although N can be comparable to such mid-Y fares.

AC1896 flying from YVR --> LAS at 0840

Bought Tango (class K) ticket in late January for $150 one way, business class was $650 at the time.
This morning, business class was $759 one way

During check-in, was offered upgrade fee of $248 (took it) - very happy with a $398 all-in price
