But what's that clever thing? I know the OP was hoping that they would move someone else so that their reassignment be less bad, but ultimately this would necessarily mean inconveniencing more people rather than the smallest number so despite having been the victim of those changes as a GGL/CCR card holder myself multiple times, I'm not entirely sure I can see a better solution. On busy flight, all good seats will be taken and ultimately if more people buy a special offer upgrade or show up in C than planned (airlines all assume a certain proportion of no shows) and the curtain moves, you will not have an obvious "clever" solution at hand I'm afraid.
