I was travelling with my partner so declined to be parted so SHE got MY business class seat to LAX!

I would have given Mrs Lavajava that upgrade. Feeling lucky the lady in my seat did not have the same boarding pass as me...as she was technically in possession. Mind you, does that mean the crew got to keep my wallet and phones?

Thanks for sharing the entertaining stories guys. Lookout for my next thread "musical chairs and how to get 4 J seats for the price of 2"
