Almost catastrophic start to the year - Earned DM 4 out of 31 on upgrade list flying from SAN to ATL on 1/1 - wife and I got the upgrade with an RUC, but still expected better. N fare.

Incidentally got upgraded 100% last year on this route with at least 5 or 6 times flying it - usually on X fares.

this time around there were 9+ F seats at T-48 but 2 x SAN to JFK were cancelled so they ate up a lot of the empty seats
