GA admitted she moved me all on her own. She wasn't even aware that there is a switch on the PNR to opt out of C+ upgrades. She just thought that I would appreciate the "upgrade". Whatever happened, it did take quite a few keystrokes at the gate to fix the error and I noticed she had to split the PNR to accomplish it.

DL is enamored with C+. I'm not. My pet peeve is the reclining seat in front of me whether it's in FC, C+, or main cabin. I'll always take hard bulkhead or exit row without the chance of a "recliner" in front of me. I accept responsibility for my extreme discomfort with a recliner in front of me and choose appropriately. DL doesn't help when they disregard what is set up. I always "opt out" of C+ upgrades and "opt out" of F upgrades about 1/2 of the time. By the way, my status is DM. This is a temporary occurrence that I don't expect will ever happen again.
