Hello all, a lowly Silver here. I thought I was the only one who was being screwed by EUA. From personal experience this year, since EUA has kicked in my upgrade percentage has fallen nearly in half. I've been upgraded on two segments, and on one of the segments I didn't want to be upgraded because I was flying with a co-worker to a very important meeting and we had reserved seats next to each other so we could get some work done.

My boss was also on the flight with us, sitting a few rows back. I asked the FA if I could give him the upgrade, and they said that they weren't supposed to do that. I begged and begged and they finally let me exchange seats (hey, I didn't want the upgrade to go to waste!)

Before EUA at least I had a fighting chance to get an upgrade. And to all those say that EUA is more equitable to the Plats, I say screw that, in the old way the Plats were given a chance to upgrade days before the Silvers were. I don't see how the new system is more fair, when the old system was pretty fair as it was.

If anybody has an electronic petition to protest this, I would be more than willing to sign it!
