Is it bad that I've already spent the VDB certs in my mind?
UA inventory is weird. The flight was zeroed out and the RCC agent confirmed that the flight was oversold. However, the gate agent and displays show that we will likely go out with a few empties. Either the numbers were weird or a bunch of people switched to other flights. Who knows...

I'll also end up at #1 in the upgrade standby list.
