Anyway, here goes:

No myself, but Mrs t.
Quite surprising, a (relatively) lowly silver on a Flex ticket. No idea how many opups there were, not being an avgeek (just married to one), she does not look out for that sort of detail. Looked at the new BP when waiting for the lift (A9) and thought: 'cool, I must take the other lift'
We usually fly J on this route so she was very chuffed this morning to tell me the upgrade Gods had smiled upon her and dropped her in 15J.
