my wife was #1 for an upgrade with 2 seats open. both of those seats were gone while she was standing at the gate ready to board.. you guessed it NON-REV.. she was so upset.. (well words that I would not use here)

DL has to clear the standbys anyway...so when people no -show and empty F class seats are open. It is way easier to just clear the standby into F than to upgrade those who have already boarded.
