While I was checking in, the lady doing the check in for me suddenly mutters "what is class R?". Immediatly I smiled as I knew it was an upgrade, but I never expected the seat I saw on the leg MIA-EZE as it was in First... sweet!

Given that the original seat from DFW to EZE was in the back of the plane in the middle of the 5 seat row, was a very nice upgrade!
