Route: FLL-SAN (+ companion)
Fare class: G
Flight number: 481
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800
Upgrade cleared: T-0 (after boarding) to last remaining F seat.
Flight was 11/12 for even after plane was loaded, gate agent came on and asked if I would like to move up a minute before door closed.

Flight number: 1121
Aircraft: Boeing 737-900
Upgrade cleared: T-120 with companion.
This was the emptiest flight I have been on in recent times -- at T-120 were the only passengers in F, and F left 50% empty. Flight was at ~20% capacity overall.

Just an observation...starting 3 days out, I started monitoring the UG list, i was #1. There were 5 seats for sell upto the 24hr mark...then about an hour later, AS dumped the U space and cleared the top 5 people on the list (i remained #1 on list the entire time).

It had to happen sooner or later; I was batting a thousand until today. No complaints from me though - I’m 13/14 so far in 2023.

0/3 today ... there was another 100k onboard PHX-PDX-BOS sitting in PE with me. FA on the way back made some comment about seeing so many of the same folks a few days ago. I must have missed the memo on Boston being so popular in the winter. Had time to make a mad dash to the AA lounge for guac and meatballs during the turnaround.

Flight number: 646
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800 Star Wars livery
Upgrade cleared: T-23
Ending January with just over 26k revenue miles, and wow, what a shameful state this plane was in — arm rests in row 2 were in-op and taped shut, the back of the seats on row 1 were (barely) taped in place. The APU on the plane was “on sabbatical” as the pilot said prior to take off, and not to worry, this is completely OK.
The only saving grace was the FA Kate was one of the best I’ve had in recent memory.
