Is it the case that if 2 seat maps are displayed for the flight, this is coded correctly?

Also, the poster above (CAETrvlr) mentioned upgrade inventory in the GDS. I had assumed after the Expert Flyer this was much harder to come by, does someone have a handy thread to look at (three letter searches never work)?
No, the website doesn't tell you that you have an upgrade requested anymore. Kind of a pain.

Inventory is still available through a GDS if you have a subscription or a travel agent friend willing to look things up for you. DL simply prohibited ExpertFlyer from publishing the data it retrieved from a GDS... but the GDS still has the data.
