F is always full, but the load in Y can be light sometimes. For some reason though, apparently tomorrow's flight BDA-PHL was completely sold out days ago - maybe the holiday weekend - I know I also paid about $60 more than usual. I'm not keeping count, but I'm about 60% or so on upgrades so far since I started working here in December. I'm gold, but way at the bottom of the gold list because I only started flying in December and my 12-month-rolling EQM's are quite low.
They want 15K miles for the UG for the "Carribean" which pretty clearly seems to not be worth it, especially since I can get us exit rows if on the same PNR. But I honestly don't know how he would get into a coach seat if the row is full. I would describe him as "Chris Christie-sized."
