It’s not the longest flight, but one can dream. It would be nice to mvoight’s point to know if these are true op-ups to clear space in Y or if they’re truly just doing it out of the kindness of their hearts and to build loyalty, my guess is it’s the former.
I have definitely received PE upgrades when there was plenty of space in the back. So it is not only capacity based. I have been upgraded 2 times at check in from the app. Both times there was P inventory available (can be coincidental)
