ANA Premium Domestic Upgrade on Award Ticket
Hello,
I'm trying to upgrade my domestic award tickets within Japan to ANA Premium Class.
Following this guide, the pictures don't match my accounts reservation page.
I called ANA US and they said there's no such thing and I should check at the airport.
At the airport the price is higher and we risk losing the seat.
How do we do this online?

Notes:
Current Award Ticket Itinerary is IAH-NRT in F, NRT-ITM in Economy.

Have you tried calling the Japan reservations desk? They're more likely to be aware of this "promotion" (which isn't really a promotion as it's year round).

”...All customers included in the reservation must be ANA Mileage Club members.”

Thanks I’ll check next time as they told me there was only one seat left.
Would this have worked if I booked on the Japanese site of ana.co.jp? US agent hinted that it was booked on the US site.
Yes. Been doing it inside of AMC.

If flying on a purely NH domestic award issued by another carrier (UA), does anyone know if it's possible to add my ANA Mileage Club number to the reservation to be able to purchase a Premium Class upgrade two days ahead of time? Or, am I limited to requesting the upgrade at the airport on a non-NH issued ticket?
