On the return I did SDC to ATL-EWR-SFO and applied the RPU over the phone at the time of the change. I cleared immediately EWR-SFO and was
#1 on the waitlist ATL-EWR, which is what I would typically expect.
Any idea what happened on the outbound?
I think the bigger news here is you cleared immediately on p.s. EWR-SFO. Congrats.
SFO-DEN likely had no one upgraded before the flight so there were plenty of GS ahead of you. Not surprised about DEN-ATL either.
