So, my wife is ex-GS and had some plus points left from last year. She is PP now. We are waitlisted for an upgrade on Dec 31st, CDG to EWR. They told us that we are 6,7,8 on the list with about 15 seats remaining. I think there is a 25% chance that we’ll get it. However, unless we get two seats together (the ones in the middle with a divider), we will have to decline the upgrade. We want at least 1 parent to be sitting next to our toddler (3 years old). Can we request this if our upgrade clears or should we board and ask our fellow passengers if anyone would like to switch? Our worst case scenario is if we get the upgrade but can’t get 2 seats together and we also lose out on the 3 seats in economy which we have together. Thoughts?
