At least the occurrences of DYKWIAs in the UC are not as frequent as the DL SCs with Diamonds getting free SkyClub membership.

One time at BWI, I got the upgrade via B fare, and there were almost 50 elites on the list who were stuck in Y. Of course, when they called Elite Access there were easily 60 people stampeding towards the GA. I wound up finding myself in the middle of the stampede and one Platinum walked and literally pushed me out of the way [squeezed his arm between me and the person standing next to me and pushed us both away] while saying "I am a Platinum and please move out of the way".

I was slightly infuriated, but kept my cool and vented to the PPlat who was sitting next to me and we laughed it off
