So we can all get a handle on how they are going to work in the real world, how much they will cost, et c.
Post flight, date, route, original fare basis (T, T+, Lat, etc), and if known, seat inventory (i.e. J9, C7, Z5, I3). If you do upgrade, please also let us know how many empty J seats there were in the cabin, if any. And if you were considering a certificate upgrade, why or why you didn't opt for the LMU.
It would be helpful if this thread could be limited to "just the facts" and no discussion, which could be posted elsewhere. That should make this thread more useful for everyone.
Should anyone want to discuss LMU's further please post in this thread:

YVR to YXY. Y to J. 2 x J seats remaining T-1 hour.
$2500 offered. No, not a mistake.
Despite this steal of a deal, declined.

Absolutely ridiculous pricing. You have to be insane to accept it.

Tango, no didn't bite, seems a bit excessive for PE. I actually phoned up to upfare to P 2 days ago for about $950 (by paying fare difference) but availability went from P1 to P0 while I was on hold... Was $1500 ish to go to Z.
J upgrade is now available again for $1435 (J1).
I am waiting to see if more space will open up to drive the price down a bit as there probably will be some misconnects with the weather in the east, specially YYZ.
