Turn on expert mode and look for PZ availability. But it doesn’t appear often.

One of the main things you can do to increase your odds for clearing/improve placement on the waitlist is buying a more expensive fare.

Thank you!

If your PlusPoints are waitlisted and you see open PN-GS only/PZ-anyone else, you can withdraw your request and apply your PlusPoints again to "skip the line". However, if upgrades sweep is run between your withdrawal and reapplication, then you will lose your original position on the waitlist.

Otherwise, like D1 said, buy up fare class or book PremiumPlus, which trumps all other statuses in Economy except for Global Services. And of course you can always achieve higher status or even Global Services 😎

Extremely helpful. I’m 1K but not yet GS unfortunately.
