It is all messy and we are looking for more examples. The last one I saw, the upgrade was based off the Saver cost of the original cabin you are already in and NOT the current reward price.
This means if PE is currently 75k and Upper 100k, and you have a PE ticket, the upgrade is NOT 75k. It is whatever the Saver price of a PE redemption would be (35k?) and so the upgrade is 65k.
Still looking for more examples to prove it works like this though.
I believe anything except Eco Light can be upgraded.
