This is a new one for me...just purchased a OW LAX-SFO-BOS flight as a G fare for $120. At time of booking the popup window appeared and offered a buy-up for the LAX-SFO for $170 and SFO-BOS segment for $339 to F. I'm already out of RPUs (thanks UA for ridding the 2 CR1s per 10K flown/quarter) and allocated GPUs for international travel I decided to purchase the upgrade as an experiment which is a first for me (sorry no pun intended). The new booking code for SFO-BOS is Z class. I figured it would get lumped into an "-N" class versus discounted biz with 150% EQM accrual. I apologize but is this the norm now when a kettle "buys-up tp F" for example??? Conversely, the flight I booked 20 min prior was BOS-EWR-LAX and offered a $990 upgrade for the EWR-LAX segment to F (the load was much heavier) at time of booking.
