I was in the new business lounge as had a few friends flying elsewhere that i met up with before flight.

Lots of upgrades in front of me Y-J, person in front and I both upgraded J-F. Then plane was delayed for about 20mins as they offloaded bags for people who didn't show up, lucky the don't wait for boarding before upgrading!
another reason to check the mobile BP and keep refreshing in the lounge, then if good news ask the lounge entrance to print a new BP then run to board!
