1/2 for 3 when I checked around T-30. Upgraded about an hour before the flight. Oddly, with 1A, 4C, and 4F available... it put me in 4F and my travel partner in 1A.

GREAT flight attendant - absolutely top notch for a 2 hour flight. Reminds me I need to do an Alaska Listens for her.

SDC'd to an earlier flight after plans changed slightly. We both ended up middle seat exit row, no upgrades processed, we were 3/4 anyway. We tried buying the 2 open F seats after SDCing but the app wouldn't let us do much of anything; someone else bought them before UGs were processed (we were hoping 1/2 would get upgraded and we'd get their EC seats). Was able to reserve a food order in the app, which I didn't get because the plane wasn't catered in SFO. No chocolate bar. Not sure the FA even bothered checking status, though my partner got her free beverage.

Oh well, 3 hours extra at home is worth a middle seat some times.
