Upgrade using miles, when?
I haven't used any miles before, just wondering if the miles are taken out of my account after I travel or as I book the upgrade? I upgraded a week ago but my account shows that I still have same amount. Thanks

On a recent upgrade, my (upgrade) miles were deducted about 10 days after making the request. The weird thing was, there was no transaction for the deduction listed on my acct. My current balance just changed...

Miles upgrade ticket queuing up can take up to two weeks.
Start checking your itinerary on NWA.com after a few days. This area will show your class of service along with the usual ticketing info...
