I agree with William that IF you're going to give someone status based on whom they're travelling with, marital status should be irrelevant. But I still don't buy the underlying premise. That's hardly surprising.
It IS interesting to see how airlines handle the same stuff differently.
If LexPassenger and I are on the same PRN, we have to call and get our records separated before 72 hrs out. On Delta, you cannot request upgrades on-line with a multi-passenger reservation. Pain in the whatnot. Delta generally seems to know that we're together anyway, but we do make a point of picking our fallback coach seats far in advance.
