I was on a flight where around 20 people got upgraded at gate, probably more before gate control; the entire cabin (full) was filled with upgraded pax, save for 1 or 2 paid passengers. Even a lowly Delta member like me got upgraded, and I paid less than $100 for the one-way trip.

I feel bad for people that paid hundreds, if not thousands, for a 763 seat, all with little to no service.
