I'm assuming that once everybody's UDUs clear, some E+ seats will open up that we might be able to grab. Right? But if so, when's the best time to try to move forward--72 hours before, 24 before, at the gate?
If you can't get up to e+ by the time you get to the gate, you might want to practice your VDB speech and volunteer at the gate. Who knows, you may get $800 (and ask about F on the next flight out.)
