A quick update...
Well, my flight from DCA-MEM (which was overbooked by 6 people & which had FT'ers rmyadsk & seoulmanjr on it) left with F full - I tried getting bumped with no luck because they couldn't get me into LAS unless they rebooked me on a DCA-MSP flight on NW & a MSP-LAS flight on HP in F - they didn't want to do it. But as I was so helpful and I gave up my window bulkhead to a handicapped passenger (5F), the GA gave me 2 SRP's (service recovery packs). Then when I boarded, the FA needed my new seat to sit a family together - sat in 6A and she gave me another 2 SRP's - not too bad.
At the club in MEM, the desk agent said that I should be able to make the waitlist for F as there was one seat left & I was first on the list (the EUA didn't go through at all!). I got to the gate as they were pre-boarding & the GA had 4C for me. Not bad - I'm glad I got to sit in F for that flight!
Now, if only the return LAS-IND would clear! Not sure if there's availability or not at this point, but I'm hoping there will be. I'm down $150 since I've been here, but that's not too bad for 2 days of gambling...
