One data point:
LAX-HNL
Applied instruments to MrsDELee and myself even though R=0.
One day later, I checked the webpage and its offering $299/person to buy up in to P. After asking MrsDELee again (had asked when I booked if she was ok to book into F or a day before if she was ok with sitting in E+), she said "buy". So I bought - with the instruments still applied.
Anyway, just before T-24, instruments still not returned, so I called 1K and the agent pulled them off before I went and checked in.
So, no, the instruments did not come back without asking but it wasn't hard. And we still had the offer to buy up even though I had the instruments applied.
