I probably was imprecise in my wording in the original post. I know I only paid for PV, I know what she described was Affaires, I was more just sharing the info that she got mysteriously upgraded another notch.
I'm happy she got it, and since I make all her travel plans, I'm happy to take the credit. (Especially since after getting to CDG she had a 6-hour wait and then another 3-hour flight to OTP.)
I'm hoping for some kind of upgrade myself when I go in two weeks, but not counting on it, especially since I'm on an A380.
