Waded through most of this thread and can't find the answers, nor can I find it on the UA website.

a. If I buy a ticket through Thai Airways, for Thai Airways metal flights, do I call UA Mileage Plus to upgrade using UA miles? (Understanding it must be a Y/B fare.)

b. Or do I have to purchase the ticket from UA (on Thai metal) to use UA miles to upgrade?

c. If no upgrades are available when I call, will I waitlist or have to keep calling back?

Thanks in advance.

I apologize if this has been answered previously, but I'm not clear on the current status...

Is it possible to upgrade C->F on the SQ B77W using the *A Upgrade Award (UA MileagePlus)? I know the A380 is blocked, but the B77W seems to qualify.

Thanks!

Is the OP still available to update his posts on the first page or has this thread been superseded by another?
