United Paid Business / First - Involuntary Downgrades
This was a new one for me. Showed up in plenty of time for an EWR-GRU UA flight on 5/23. Had booked in business earlier that day for around $3300 one-way.
When I got to the airport, was offered three adjacent coach seats and a $1200 voucher. Same thing happened to another business passenger who was seated in three adjacent coach seats a row ahead of me.
This happening to anyone else or was my experience an anomaly? Am a bit reticent to book last minute business class internationally on UA for my upcoming trips. I took TAM on the way back for the first time and it was pretty comparable to UA.
