  • Ticket purchased 20 AUG 2021
  • This was part of an itin purchased via AS so I was surprised to be upgraded on an AA segment. I'd thought AA upgrades could happen only on flights reserved directly with AA.
  • I don't know where I was in an upgrade list; the AS app didn't show it and I didn't check the monitor at the gate.

The AA return portion of this itin:
25 SEP 2021 | AA 6079 (AS Codeshare 6840) | GRR/ORD | Embraer ERJ-145LR
* But I was perfectly happy to stay in my exit row 12A MCE seat for such a short flight: 28 minutes wheels up to wheels down, 12 minutes from wheels down to the gate.
* Completely full flight, but with the oddity that two passengers with the exact same name were both assigned 12C. Someone up front (non-rev? standby pax?) had to give up her seat for one of them.
