I'm sure it's just coincidence that this was finally fixed the same day that TPG posted about PZ not being visible.
Or maybe it was my email to 1kvoice

Of more interest to me is my upgrades being assigned dynamically....now wish TPG would write that queue jumping should not occur (but does). I did it once last year but it is time consuming.

Yeah... just noticed a PZ1 on a flight later this week I had booked from SFO to BOS. I had to call to get the upgrade applied - it did not do it dynamically. I may have "skipped the queue." But that seat is now mine.

There is still a glitch confirmed by an agent just now. I found PZ 6 /7 SFO-SIN r/t.... of course the DFW-SFO not available.
Bought ticket w GPUS applied and waited...refreshed..waited...refreshed. 20 minutes later nothing. Called in and was told it's waitlist only. When I pointed out the TPAC is wide open she as very surprised and couldn't understand why it didn't clear.
Her actual words were "Oh no, not again!" LOL
Had to wait for a supervisor to clear it manually.

As much as I respect your sage UA wisdom and influence, Kacee, I tend to think the credit, if at all, would go to the former and not the latter. 😉 My email to 1K voice was forwarded to MP and then took three days to be addressed by the web team which resulted in a canned reply providing a number for me to call web support. 🤔

No, that's just business as usual. Confirmable upgrade space is rare; on a weekend, especially so. UA's going to try to sell the seats.

I mean I get it, and have used it once myself (last year) but what a waste of time needing to watch. I am one of those that just gives up and hope no one from FT books an upgradeable fare on the same flights as me.
