I loved the part where I got to run the upgrade system, and got to see when a party that was traveling BHM-ATL-CUN failed to show at the gate, even though they had 3 hours to move from B to E. Apparently they decided to go drinking in C. It was interesting to see how close to pushback time the agent would go before taking the bags off.
