Has anyone had any experience post-merger calling up and having the premier desk re-seat the companion next to them in e+ gratis even though they're on their own itinerary, and if so does it stick (ie not get swept out at some point)?
Despite my complaining in another thread about supervisors enforcing the same PNR rule, I called in a few weeks ago and the agent put my companion in e+ w/o hesitation and we flew with no problems. They did say they would "link" the reservations. So, standard mantra, hang up and call again!
