I think OLD GOLD made a good point a few posts back that sums up my frustration. There is quite a difference between "space available unlimited upgrades" and what they seem to be doing with more and more frequency, which are "capacity control upgrades". I'm fine with not getting the upgrade based on the elite hierarchy, but it troubles me when it's due to capacity controls. Just my opinion.</font>
Does CO capacity control the upgrades? If there are capacity controls, what is the result? Are first class seats denied to elites and are being left empty, sold, used for mileage upgrades, used for employees, .. ?
