Window seat is zone 2? Really? Guess it has been awhile since I had no status on UA, but other airlines I haven't seen a window seat getting you on the plane quicker.
If I could get her E+, wouldn't care less about the upgrade. But since I can't, she will be in the back of the plane. No fun.
Anyway, looks like I have no chance to do anything, I guess that's good for UA, the real FF deserve the benefits anyway. Just thought I'd ask.
