Just wanted to make sure we didn't see all kinds of posts along the lines of:
"I booked DEN-SFO-NRT-LAX-DEN -- why couldn't I upgrade with one GPU?!"

Assuming this is a correct 1 GPU routing, how/whether this could be extended to a miles+copay situation, say a TPAC in W for $600 & 30k miles rather than double that. Or are we approaching the realm of fantasy?

Sounds about right...

Not paid J, but hopefully rear-end in J!
