Fiancee and I are flying F award tomorrow but first leg is Y. We are waitlisted for F but it has not cleared. Should I OLCI at 24hours or wait until I get to airport if I am waitlisted?

LOL. What's the difference? MIA is an AA hub, DEN is not. DEN is a UA hub, MIA is not.

LOL. Never!

UA is not changing Y in the 747. They have already reconfigured F&C and will not be making any further changes to the 747.
