And too late to order a special meal.

This one was waitlisted for weeks with a CR-1. It was F9P9A0 NF0 for weeks and then went to 10 FC seats unassinged (previously 9) a few days before the flight. Still F9 even the morning of the flight.

Nothing like holding things until the last minute!
I flew yesterday (11/4) from SFO to HNL. My upgrade cleared at the 4 hour before departure also. Prior to that, F was wide open (F9).

Couldn't get seat until checked in with representative at airport (no easy check-in allowed).
