As platinum, last 3 weeks:

13/16 upgrades (NO = IAH-SFO Sunday night; AUS-IAH Sunday night; SFO-EWR Monday morning - yes I know the two SFO flights are horriblly crowded with fullfares...but just for the record..platinums are NOT getting upgraded on them)...

Now, the interesting part...of my 13 succesful upgrades, SIX were "pull from coach after boarding." THIS SUCKS. Its no fun. I hate the stress of it, having to move all my crap or just wait for everyone to deplane and go back for it. It takes a lot of the fun out of this "benefit" CO is giving me.
