Codeshare Z Upgrade Question...
 

I searched the forum but didn't find a recent answer. Knowing how things change, I figured I'd ask as a new post. I usually avoid code-shares like the plague. But, in this case I have to fly ATL-ATH next week via CDG. The TATL flight, ATL-CDG, is DL operated/DL ticketed. But, the CDG-ATH is AF operated/DL ticketed (9xxx flight number). I'm booked in M on all flights.

On EF, I see that AF has lots of E (Elite upgrade) inventory available on their flight. But, is there anyway to get one either with miles or PMUs? There is Z inventory for the DL operated flights. But, wanted to know what is allowed (or has been experienced) by others before calling for the upgrades.

Thanks!

Sorry, but you can't use PMUs to UG a flight on AF metal.

or miles

Nor a cute face?

I don't know, the cute face might work better. There's a thread out there about some guy getting TATL upgrades by flirting with the TA & GA. LOL^
