Chance for upgrade?

I am a diamond medallion and am flying with my daughter who does not have any status. Where will that put us in the upgrade chain? I can use my PU503certificates to upgrade if we are below silvers ect. Thanks for the input.

If you want to be upgraded together, it will be after all medallions clear. Companion upgrades go by fare class, so any medallion+companion on a higher fare will also clear before you.

PU503

If you use your cert, you can upgrade at the time of booking if the inventory is available (Z or G). If not, you can be waitlisted. SWU certs may or may not clear before the day of departure but they do not follow the medallion priority. That only applies to complimentary upgrades which come from a different bucket.

Depending on the age of your daughter, you may be required to ride in the same cabin or pay an UM (unaccompanied minor) fee.
