question about overbooking?
hi
im an hour from boarding CO88 PEK-EWR
noticed for the last hour or two that economy was "FULL" and there were 2 names that were simultainiously on the flight stand-by list and on the upgrade stand-by list
does this mean they were moved to biz-first cause of overboking in eco? or something else?
as of now the 2 names cleard the ug list
i asked at check in if there was a chance of overbooking and was told NO

If they are on both lists odds are they are non-revs.

It's no problem because NRSAs clear at Boarding Time after all Elites & Revenue Standbys have been processed for the flight, so I don't see the issue.
