At least now I know for sure what to do if my UG doesn't clear before OLCI. Check in ASAP and check out the UG offer.

NRT-IAD
C - F
$4,999
Seems to be my standard offer lately and got my same response - NO!
Edit: Now at Narita - current offer is $989 for C -> F. Tempting as flight is packed and I have aisle seat in the 4 across section (a.k.a. the coffin zone) but not going to bite...

IN - Elite (Plat/1K/GS) Saver Business or 2-cabin First Award
How did you get the IN space Kacee? Were you waitlisted?
In sequence, for those trying to follow along at home:
I should have checked the bible: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unite...uckets-ua.html

Yes you can call to do that. You can also try on .com, but that's not reliable. The App is not going to give you that option.

Lax-las. $39
737-900
Somehow 10 people were upgraded/CPUd and I wasn't one of them. This year will go down I the record books as the worst experience ever as elite. Looks like all instruments will expire.
Yes, I accepted the $39 UPC, who wouldn't? Booking class Z to boot so I believe I get 150%EQMs. I would whine at to the mere idea of such a low buy up but what I don't understand is how 10 people got the CPU and I didn't. I booked about a week in a half out on a decent booking class. LAX-LAS earlier this year several times is the reason I am 6/100 on CPUs and not 1/100. (The 1 being SFO-SEA).

Yes, the miles posted as they should for my "A" fare, and I even got full PQD's for the amount originally paid plus the upgrade. I wasn't expecting the latter.
