Really weird situation. Upgraded into U space for a flight tomorrow. System won't let me select a seat, so I call.
Agent said that I was upgraded into oversold F (oversold by 3 people!). So, the only option is to be forced back into coach or risk sitting in a middle seat in the back.
Great experience AS!

Interesting to note that my buddy who's flying with me on his own ticket, also a 75k, has not cleared on the SEA-RDU leg (nor on the return). I think we booked these tickets maybe a day or two apart, at most.

the app UGWL was confusing as heck. Day before departure, my friend showed 5th on the UGWL on SEA-RDU and my friend and I showed 3rd and 4th, respectively, on the UGWL for RDU-SEA. The morning of, I check list and my friend got upgraded on both legs. He someone jumped in front of the people ahead of him. Now, on the return leg, I showed 3rd with a seat remaining. A few hours later when I land in RDU, i noticed I had been upgraded to F and jumped over the two people ahead of me.
I dont think the AS upgrade list was correct at all. I never checked the gate UGWL screen to compare if they were the same.

Status: MVP
Fare Class: T
Upgrade at sometime before T-24, but not at T-48
DAL-LGA (AS 3326 later that day) I'm in PC, plus that and a return JFK-SEA on AS 7 (2/4) look pretty sweet for open F space, but nothing yet. Any day where you get upgraded on a transcon is a good day. This trip will get me over halfway back to MVPG by itself (sorry but not sorry @beckoa).
