Booking class U
Trying to book ORD-HNL online with discount code. Return trip always comes up U fare. According to ozstamps fare code thread, U is a TED fare, but this isn't a TED flight. Does anyone know if U is upgradeable with miles?

I can't seem to replicate the U fare on the return segment. What flight numbers are you booking?

I wonder if it's a glitch mistake on the Web site.

The new AA fare structure has Y and K fares on most routes for unrestricted tickets. Think of K as having all the features of Y, except it's inventory controlled.
