Waitlisted for Upgrade using Miles - What Fare Code?
Hi Folks!
I feel like this question has been asked before, but I can't seem to find the answer. I have put in for an upgrade for a friend and I (both using my OP account, I am Gold and he is Premier on UA) and we are currently waitlisted for an upgrade to R class. Is this the correct class we should be waitlisted for? I have read on CO.com that inside the upgrade windows, the mileage upgrades should still sit on top of the waitlist up until 24 hours prior -- does that hold true even though we're waitlisted for the same fare bucket as the EUA upgrades (R)?
Thanks!

Yes, that is the correct bucket for mileage, instrument and EUA-based upgrades.
For B/M-Ups it is ZE and for Y-Ups it is FE.
