Once when traveling on DL with a pet, I was upgraded LAX-ATL. Turned out that my seatmate had also been upgraded and was traveling with a pet. I don't even know if the FAs were aware. Both pet carriers remained under the seats and the animals were quiet for the whole trip.
Good point. And the FA's might not even be aware of deltas limit of 2 pets in the First class cabin, or for that matter they probably don't care if it isn't observed as long as the pets behave and aren't causing problems. On this short of a flight the only reason I want the upgrade is for the extra legroom since I can't sit in an exit row travelling with a pet.
