    Hello All,

    We are planning a family trip to Hawaii. There will be 5 of us, I am on the only one with Status (Gold). My SO's mother is on the trip with us , and I want to see if I can upgrade just her ticket to FC with points. Or, would I have to upgrade myself and then I can upgrade one of the companions (which would be her then) using the points? Or, can I only upgrade myself.

    These are all being purchased on the same reservations/ticket at the same time.

    Thanks.

    Yes, you can upgrade anybody you want to, whether they are traveling with you or not. Once you have the PNR just call the elite desk and they'll dip it if there is space. Hawaii, as you know, is one of the hardest upgrade routes, so don't dawdle..

    Thanks. I didn't realize I could upgrade anyone....and I also didn't realize it was a hard route to upgrade. Great advice!
