1) 9:25 seating - I am seated 16C on the 752 (which I wouldn't want to lose if any delays occurred).
2) Even if I EUA on the 8:30am - MHT-EWR is only 70% on-time - which means a late arrival and I'm back to 9:25am with no confirmed seating or flight class (possibly causing me to miss this flight)
3) Doing the run and check at the gate in EWR would allow me to weigh the option of 9:25am confirmed seating vs battlefield upgrade on the spot (if any is left to be had).
Looks like the OP Lucked out by listening to us
The MHT-EWR flight today on time @ 6:40am but got into EWR 4 mins late @ 8:04am @ Gate 104A and the 8;30am 1592 was leaving from Gate 90, long way to go but had the OP changed to that flight they would have had no problem making it, why you ask, well it was delayed to 2;39pm (6 hrs) while the flight the OP originally booked @ 9:25am left on time and got in a few mins early @ MCO. So Im sure CO put the people from the 8:30 flight onto the 9:25 flight and at least they still had 16C
