*This flight was very weird, the gate agent must've forgot to clear upgrades because when I scanned I was still in 19A to where I was like uhhh shouldn't I be in First I'm #2 for 4 open seats and then he moved me to 5D. He never actually cleared #1, #3, and #4 though and there was someone in 15A rightfully complaining that they didn't get their upgrade. Glad I said something at the gate for my sake.
I had an empty seat in FC last week as well (with ~20 on upg list). And that was for a 4+ hr flight DTW-LAX - I would have been pissed .... there was no rush/issue as flight was boarded and went out on time.
