PerkChoice Tickets and E-First Upgrades
Does anyone know if coach class PerkChoice tickets are eligible for e-first upgrades during check-in if they are available? NWA doesn't give me a straight answer. I'm flying from MSP-HNL on the non-stop in a few months and want to possibly upgrade to first class, but I bought a perkchoice ticket and I'm unsure if this is doable...

This suggests not to Hawaii. Perhaps not on award tickets at all (gold and plat members auto upgraded domestically, but again not to Hawaii).

No elite upgrades from mainland to hawaii no matter what kind of ticket you buy.
Unless you are a HA resident with a cert and space is available.

I am not sure of all the technicalities here, but be sure of this: if the ticket is coded PK300. Forget about anything including EQM and ES too. The cash means nothing... You get the flight though and that is cool for some with lots of EQM etc.
