And speaking of MM, on my recent flight to OGG the FA showed me that my MM status does not appear on her paperwork that she uses when she greets everyone and takes their orders, it only appears on her electronic device.
I've been a 75k for years now, and although I have never tried to do so, it just does not make sense that I would/should be able to have someone moved just so I could sit in the seat they have already taken!

IMHO, a MM that is STILL flying should outrank a lowly 75k
