I guess it was an operational upgrade that should have been caught as we were boarding. In either case I said thanks and enjoyed the hot breakfast.

I was on a flight in June where there were several people who had the same seat numbers on their BPs. Three flyers had checked in online the night before and three who checked in at the airport had the same seat assignments. There was a glitch in the system. There was quite a fuss by several passengers who were very rude to the two who were seating in "their" seats. The two were an older couple flying together and had boarded first. The two who were very rude got "their" seats. The older couple got upgraded to first. The third person who checked in online first also got upgraded to first.
