If there is someone eligible the system will process the EUA in near real-time before offering it for sale.

You used to be so happy about real-time EUA. What happened?
I flew today on the 9am from EWR-SEA. It was not a real-time EUA. I was number 2 on the list out about 30 people on the standby Up list.

Around 7:30am this morning I checked and F was still full at 24, then it opened and then only 23 seats occupied in F. The person at the top of the list did not get the upgrade. Then about 20 minutes later, the 24th seat goes and it goes to someone who then takes seat 2F and they appear on the upgraded list.

So I do not think it was realtime EUA - I believe someone was offered the buy up when they checked in around 7:40am and they took it and got the seat. The person at the top of the list the night before and up to flight time did not get an upgrade. Somehow the other person that got it at 7:40am - got it.
