C cabin has not one assigned seat in it. When i type in F, A or P it will not show a seatmap.. Odd... Anyways, if you paid for a F ticket you should be seating in the FC suites, if you used upgrade certs than expect to be seated in Biz class. This has happened to me before. I was booked on a LAX-ORD on a 757 and that same hour or so during boarding the plane was switched to a 747..well there were pax that were upgraded that had F boarding passes..the GAs were calling a bunch of names tearing up BPs and bounching us back into Biz...no double upgrade
Happened to me once, too, on the red-eye from LAX to ORD. My pre-assigned 2A still existed on the swapped-in 3 class 777 and -- for some reason -- they never called me up to take it away. Was on an international B class ticket upgraded to NC with an SWU as a UGS. (Alphabet soup!) Raced to my seat and went to sleep, wondering whether I'd be downgraded right up until the second they closed the door.
