Woah, I just got a "you've been upgraded to premium" email. Haven't seen one of those in a VERY long time!
They put me in a crappy seat (16... no recline) but I moved to 17.
F is still wide open (all 8 seats available on seat selection -- no clue what the load is but I'm guessing they haven't sold a single seat) and STILL no U space... T-2 days. I dunno who they are playing chicken with but my upgrade chances are looking good. Even Premium is mostly empty. Maybe my last chance at a beloved VX F seat...
