AS taketh away and AS giveth.....
So, all my bars are empty when I visit my account on AS, which makes me very sad,
but I just got the notice that my first flight of 2015 has been upgraded to 1D for my flight on Jan. 6, 2015.

I got upgraded on AS 102 ANC-SEA on 1/2 even though I was on a coach award - it was a very, very light flight and I asked nicely. (There were at least two open F seats at T-1 and only 44 pax in coach)

I would have no problem guesting someone into the BR, but like a lot of others, I access the BR with Priority Pass which allows no guests (not even my kids) so it's never an option for me (wish we got one free guest, but oh well).

Did you move back to lie flat Y after your F meal? I always have a hard time deciding whether to give up F for even more space in Y.

Upgraded 1/6 SJD-SEA +1 as 2015 MVP vs 2014 MVPG. Upgrade came through at about T-72 (on 1/3). I thought only MVPGs were upgraded at T-72 and I thought only MVPGs got +1 upgrades. Is it possible the system thought I was still MVPG in my reservation? My account status was reset to MVP by the time the upgrade cleared. Is there a delay in syncing status changes with reservations? I was not expecting to be upgraded. I was not even expecting to qualify for a myself+1 upgrade on 1/6. Any ideas? At any rate, I'm not complaining.
