I did a search and checked other threads, so here goes...
I used FF miles to book an award ticket for my wife. We're traveling on the same itinerary. While I know award ticket travelers do not receive upgrades, has anyone had luck getting a companion upgrade in such circumstances?
Also, although I booked the tickets at the same time and selected seats next to each other, her e-itinerary shows us sitting separately. Will I have to wait until check-in to ask for changes?
We're both just lowly FOs. My ticket is an "M" fare.
