Strange Upgrade Process
Flying tomorrow MEM-CLT-BUF. Upgrade cleared at window for CLT-BUF (Mainline), got the new thumbs down on MEM-CLT. Thought that was strange, as I don't picture that route full of CP's. (I have not missed a UPG in over 18mths). I went to check in via my mobile.usairways.com @ t-24 to ensure best priority and it said "No Upgrades Avail". When I got back to my PC, I used OLCI and I went to "change seats" and it allowed me to choose a FC seat. Reservation then showed as a "O" Class.
Seems strange and could allow a lower level elite to take a upgrade from a higher level if they were doing OLCI first?
