Yup. (Although, I would like them to do op-ups).

I wanted go standby on an earlier flight from MIA-MCO. GA asked if I would like to use my sticker to upgrade, to which I said "Umm, no thanks, unless you are doing operational upgrades" ( I do not upgrade on 1 sticker flights, unless its 400-551 mile distance).

She seemed kind of upset (for god knows), and said 'No, I am not doing operational ones'.

My boarding pass was 31B (757)

There were at least 12 seats empty in F, and 6 Exit row seats empty, along with others towards front of the coach cabin. Now why the hell would a computer auto-assign me there (if it does?) or why would the GA have spite against me?

Then, they needed a volunteer to move to an exit row seat, and FA decided to ask a person in 30A to move there out of all others. He could not have been EXP (well could be), and its tourist heavy route with kids, so less likely could be PLT, but he didnt know where he was going when FA asked him to go to the open exit row window seat.

Anyways, it was short flight, I sucked it up, but somehow the memory came back with this thread.
