View AS Upgrade Status Greater Than 24 Hours Out
i recall reading a thread that there is a way to see the upgrade list (and your status) on Alaska greater than 24 hours before your flight. is this a real thing or did i imagine it? if it's real, please advise how/where to see the list greater than 24 hours out.
tia!

If you pull up a flight status page, you can change the date and flight number in the URL to be your flight on a future date. IME upgrade lists tend to appear at about T-3 days give or take

If you don't find yourself on the upgrade list, check if there is another flight the same day with the same flight #. AS1352 is used for BOS-SFO and SFO-BOS and the flight status page seems to show the correct waitlist only 50% of the time.

It's not your phone, its the backend API team - https://www.alaskaair.com/statusbff/1352/2022-10-23 priorityList[] is being returned in the wrong order some times and there's also not any metadata that the frontend team could use to associate it with the correct departure time.
Although the 'bff' in that URL may mean that the frontend team decided to play at building their own API layer so maybe it's their fault, who knows.
I have a sneaking suspicion Oracle is involved though.
But I digress...

For a January 1 flight, do you enter '01' or '1' for month and day? Does it matter?

Trying to look at flight 803 for 1/1 and not working. 12/31 was working two days ago but 2023-01-01 just spins. I'll try again tomorrow.

Flying enough SFO/BOS AS1352 turns has lead me to learn this the hard way.
