I remember seeing the previous analysis of how lousy one's chances of upgrading on the Bay Area transcons can be, but the EWR-OAK flight looked wide open in First when I booked a few days ago (CO1936 on 23JUL), so I gambled and booked the flight. The upgrade cleared 5 days out.
Anyway, other than alerting people to the fact that this flight doesn't seem to be on people's upgrade radar as much as the SFO flights, I was wondering what to expect service-wise on this flight. Is it the same schtick as a mid-con (like OAK-IAH), or do they step it up a bit? I've only flown transcons on AA.
Thanks in advance...
