Please move if this is already being discussed.
I purchased a ticket today SJO-EWR-FRA-CAI and after paying for it, I had a pop up window, offering me to upgrade each individual flight as I pleased, except FRA-CAI since it is LH operated.
Looking at the pop up, it even stored my credit card information and if I had given the wrong click I would have been charged for $4.440 for the first two legs of the reservation.
It seems to me that with this new approach Upgrades definitely will be harder to get! I can see someone getting a ridiculous buy up offer and going for it, just like the ones being offered during check in.
