mp2

I have a flight coming up in the next 3.5 hrs, from SFO to Hawaii.

Very likely, I will get the UDU (Am #1 on the list right now), but Mrs. mp2 will likely not (She's #5). There are just 2 seats open (2F, 1A) on the flight.

I was thinking of taking the upgrade, and letting Mrs. Mp2 and little mp2 sit up in first, whilst I sit in economy.

This is a UA763, and from what I read, the first is not that much worth it(?). Yes, the upgrade is free, and I get a meal, but is it great enough for us to sit separately?

Any opinions on what I should do?
