It is a 45 minute flight, but #1 should have been upgraded. It looks like the MSP GA used "the you board you loose" policy. All boarded and all lost. On the contrary my flight out of RSW to MSP I was 1 on the list with 0 available and asked the agent if I should hang around or board in case of a no-show and he looked at the screen and said you can board anytime you want and I will come to 12C and get you if there is a seat available.
RSW is one of the nicest DL outstations in the system. Had a great experience flying out of there last year and got upgraded on a flight to JFK.
