IRROPS: Ticketed flight cancelled (ORD-LGA or something similar). Given a boarding pass for a much later flight that day. Immediate next flight was oversold, and I was also entered onto its standby list, somewhere in the middle of 50+ waitlisted passengers, even as EXP. Went to Admirals Club, asked about this anomaly. Lots of typing. AAngel then said, oh, these other passengers above you were inconvenienced and that fact, combined with any level of status, pushes them above you on the Standby list.

I pointed out that I was also inconvenienced, and she said -- you're correct and it's not reflected in the record. More typing. Next thing I was number one on the Standby list.
