Thanks AA: LHR-JFK Y-J upgrade for GLD girlfriend
Thank you so much AA! On a recent flight from LHR-JFK, my gf who is gold, but booked under my PLT account was upgraded from Y-J at the gate. I enrolled her in the PLT challenge two years ago and she dropped to GLD after failing to requalify. Completely unexpected. Originally I had her in 31 B, but then at the gate she was called to the podium and told her seat had changed. She started to get all upset, since 31 is the best coach seat, but then the agent says, well I can move you back from business to coach if you want!
She marveled at the awesome food, the nice seat, and, as always, awesome flight attendants. Thank you so much AA for this op-up and also for proving to her that my FT hobby is not so bad after all!
