An update on my TPA-LAX trip Friday. There were 28 platinums on the TPA-MSP gate upgrade and I got the last seat. I think only four total got the upgrade. Not ten seconds after getting my b/p the gate agent announced f/c had checked in full. First really was full a day prior, so there were probably no-shows.

I still can't figure out my MSP-TPA today. Two days ago it was showing R4, and EUA hadn't run. We'll see what happens when I get to the gate today.

Off topic but a question I must ask. Has anyone else experienced the stationary wheelchair on the moving sidewalks at MSP?? The guy behind me said something and I swear the people up front looked at him as if he was the devil. I actually agreed with him, but I must keep my angelic appearance!!
