Most recent update in the Spokane MVPG Lunch thread

I'm with your friend, FWIW - at this point the rollout has been delayed so many times it seems more like I'll believe it when I see it. However, in my multitude of DL segments since late February, I asked each time about upgrades at check in or at the gate (hoping I might find a sympathetic former NW agent). From February - May I got pretty much variations on NO. In June, on 2+ separate occasions, agents told me that they were able to do courtesy upgrades for Alaska elites, but that the F cabin was full. Seemed almost like an announcement had come out (but may have been just coincidence). Since my general experience (up to and since that point) was that Delta agents can't do anything the computer doesn't tell them to do, I do wonder if such courtesy upgrades at the gate are happening (in the rare occasion an F seat is open). Anyone getting upgraded on DL?
