Sorry been sick since I've been home, couple of data points.
MCO-EWR 1/3 $220 @ OLCI. declined. (flight ended up cancelled)
MCO-EWR 1/4 $489 @OLCI. declined (flight ended up cancelled)
My Girlfriend and I, our reservation ended up getting split (by United when we were rebooked) Not sure which time. since we had 3 cancelled flights.
Morning of 1/5 call in since I can only get one seat on a 530p and can't get two since they split our reservation. Agent finds two seats on the 830p flight.
I ask if agent can sit us together, which he says he can and puts us in 10 D and E. (which is E+ 737-800)
Once I hang up I log in to see if he really did that and sure enough we were seated in E+ for free.
Our reservations were still split he said they couldn't undo that so I checked us in individually.
At OLCI I noticed that I was now a Y Fare and she was still a L fare.
MCO-EWR 1/5 GF offered $1389 @OLCI (L fare) I was offered @489. obviously declined all..
