Using miles to upgrade on CO codeshare?
As of right now, I have some credits from CO from a canceled ticket. I am thinking of using it to exchange for domestic tickets on for me and my parents for SFO-ORD-LAX.
Chances are I will be buying a CO codeshare UA flight. I also want to use miles to upgrade them to F
Questions:
1. Will I be able to use UA miles to upgrade the flight?
2. If I am required to use CO miles, will I need to pay for co-pay?
(I am 1P on UA and nobody on CO)

Could you not drive quicker? Or is this about more miles?

I've got my sons convinced that the long routes are worth it! (they are beginning to like their award tix and 2P status). I'm still working on Mrs. PFXLAX, but I think she's coming around.
