Apropos of nothing in particular - asked about an AUP at check-in on my AMS-LGW this past Saturday and was told there were no offers on this flight, and that there would be "some changes" in the way check-in upgrades worked.

There were only 6 people in CE, with 3 rows of CE.

As it happened, on-board, just before taxi, the very nice purser approached me, iPad in hand and said "Mr opalfruit, would you like to move forward into the Club Europe cabin?".
