I understand your logic and it makes sense... Maybe CO should start advertising elite upgrades as "discounted upgrades" instead of complimentary.
I like CO, but being stingy with EUA is getting a little ridiculous here... I completely understand if they don't release R space 3+ days out if there are 3-4 F seats left, but with 8+ left c'mon...
Just my two cents.
Whats more, it will make the GA's life A LOT easier if they let EUA run its course and upgrade passengers to free up space in Y rather than blocking seats...
