Back on topic... The OP didn't say which flight they were on. Either way, both are now 777’s equipped with PP. One a -300, the other a 200. I’m guessing that when OP made seat reservations the seat map was still showing a non-PP version. That could explain why the change occurred. To be “10 rows back” means the original seat was likely in rows 16-22 (looking at the 772 Version 2 seat map) https://www.united.com/web/en-US/content/travel/inflight/aircraft/777/200/default.aspx
In the PP version, most of those don’t exist, and those which do are Polaris (16-18) or PP (20-22). https://www.united.com/web/en-US/content/travel/inflight/aircraft/777/200/default.aspx
Unfortunately… The morning flight is packed, and the afternoon flight has only middle E+ seats left. Two Polaris seats unclaimed… It’s possible that some upgrader will move into one, but there won’t be a lot. It’s booked full. No upgrade list for PP on this one… Guess the folks in the PP seats will be very happy!
