BXP1 Upgrades

BXP1 Upgrades

BXP1 T&C states that its only a 1-class upgrade. So in a domestic flight where AA is selling premium economy seats (such as DFW-ANC on 788) the BXP1 certificate is only valid for an upgrade to premium economy and not business?

What about EXP complimentary upgrades? Would it be one-class upgrades as well or is it economy to business?

Example: AA will start flying newly config. 788 with PE between DFW-ANC starting 6/6/19 and even though its a domestic flight they are selling PE as a separate cabin.

I don’t know specifically about BXP1 upgrades; but for the time being EXP complimentary upgrades should be into domestic first. Again, not sure about the DFW-ANC flight. And SWUs (for now) allow you to skip over PE into Business.
