Welcome to the Club!
Congratulations. Enjoy UNLIMITED domestic confirmed upgrades. But the competition for upgrades will be fierce. Sit at your computer at midnight and check P availability. If at 1AM you are not upgraded and there is P Availability call nw..immediately.
OK, just kidding.
Enjoy!

For upgrades, shouldn't it be F availability instead?

FAQ: Fare Class Definitions (including which fares are upgradeable)

As IndustrialPatent wrote in his thread

"using miles to upgrade use the award charts to find appropriate mileage amounts
persons without WorldPerks Elite status:
Any fare other than T or K can be upgraded; upgrades from Y come from P and upgrades from discounted fares come from F.

persons with WorldPerks Elite status:
Y fares will receive a complimentary upgrade if there is P availability; all others can be upgraded with miles."

the complimentary elite upgrades for any non-Y fare (i.e. anything but a full fare) come from the F bucket. if your upgrade hasn't cleared after midnight the day before your flight, look for F inventory, not P.

the only way you draw an elite upgrade from the P bucket is if you purchase a full Y fare, in which case you can confirm your upgrade at the time of purchase.

Congrats, MKA. I'm an MSP-based silver and I enjoy about 90% of my segments in the front cabin. I'm sure you'll enjoy the perks of silver.
