non-rev trumps 1k?
UA944 ORD - FRA in Y
#1 on the BF upgrade list (GPU, 1k)
BF fully booked, GF 1 seat available (out of 8, 3 are reserved for crew rest!)
1 pax on GF upgrade list
5 minutes before boarding a non-rev (not a pilot) shows and goes on the stand-by list, the BF upgrade list as #2 and the GF upgrade list as #2
At boarding he is assigned a seat in GF and me and the 1k gentlemen on the GF upgrade list take our assigned seats in the original booking class.
Is that normal at UA?
