DL did not run the upgrades - waiting until flight was cancelled and arbitrarily put people in those seats - including non DM or 1st class seat purchasers -I will confirm that today.

Looks like DL was saving these seats because they knew they were going to cancel the flight. I am planning on asking the station manager what happened at SRQ. Why cancel the flight but still fly the plane home.

Again please note I am on B fare @ 1k ea - so this is a high rev ticket.
So are you thinking Shena is back from vacation? I wondered where that girl went.... Had not seen or heard from her in a few weeks...

or maybe it is just a conspiracy to keep you in Y. I hear DL does that now and then to their most valuable DYKWIA customers just to keep things real and to remind them who's really boss
