We got to the checkin desk at round T - 3 and while checking, in I noticed on my phone, R seat availabilty .I asked the agent could she snag it but she couldn't. Instead she suggested that she uncheck my wife and I could go and ring 1K line and snap up the R seat.

This I did and my wife joined me in business.
You have a very patient wife. If I were in an identical situation I would be joining my girlfriend in business, her sitting in my previously confirmed seat.
