Sorry for the lack of paragraphs...I do have a college education and all, I was typing it on my Dell Mini which has a ridiculously tiny keyboard with a hard to access return key , in a rush before going out on Friday.

Anyhow, it turns out that someone must have split our reservation, then manually put both of us on standby for first class on the ATL-CHS flight, bec. when we checked in, we had to use separate kiosks bec. she didn't show up on my reservation anymore. I also noted online that we had our confirmed U-Class seats, and a separate first class standby listing. Then, for the CHS-ATL flight last night, I got an email saying I was confirmed for an upgrade. My gf, however, was not because we were now on separate reservations and were out of irrops territory. On a U-class fare we werent even eligible anyhow to begin with....she was mad, but the plane was full and apart from asking to switch with a random person, I was out of options.

Also the lav on the ATL-BWI flight had been having major problems and smelled absolutely awful...to top everything off. It was overwhelmingly stinky...
