That still does not explain the pecking order numbers and what they mean.

No idea about pecking order...

If you're on a Z fare it's a Discounted Business fare so I'm not sure why you'd be concerned about the UG list.

To purchase an UG, it depends. I've seen domestic flights require a K fare or higher to buy it at the gate.

As far as international flights, some FTers have reported being offered Delta One for $750 or more at check in.

Welcome to FlyerTalk. Since your query is specific to one award program, it is off topic here in the info desk which primarily concerns itself with cross-program matters, so the thread is now closed.

A few helpful links have been provided in the replies, but if you still have questions you will receive better feedback if you post them in the dedicated Delta forum.


Good luck!
