Those seats were sold or given away to other people. I'm not begrudging UA for selling them if they could. I stated that initially but there's nothing "imaginary" about the people that got the seats.

I happy for you that your on such a CPU friendly route most of the time. There's plenty of us on here that are not and that means our experiences are no less valid than yours.
SDC perhaps? People (not saying you) are VERY quick to always go to the old "TOD" favorite, but the fact is pmCO's SDC policy was much more generous than pmUA's. I'm not defending UA or TODs, but what was a sure thing on pmUA or pmCO is a different animal in the new carrier.
