D'oh
Just posting because I am feeling silly. Forgot the 'no upgrades within 24 hours' for businessfirst - as result, I'm sitting in A and girlfriend in Y for trip to NRT! Let this be a lesson to y'all...

I hope you meant that your girlfriend is sitting in A and you are sitting in Y for your trip to Tokyo. Otherwise it'll be your ex-girlfriend sitting in Y.

Better let her sit in A and you in Y lest you have no GF when you get to NRT!

You'll be pleased to hear that you're the proud father of a thirty year argument. D'oh indeed.

Actually
How silly of me not to think of it. I know that FAs won't allow to switch seats mid-flight, but I suppose switching before flight should be OK.

Or, just blame the whole situation on the fact that you "can't leave your ticketed cabin" - blame the industry, the regulators and the terrorists.

You can switch mid-flight, too. Don't expect to get two meals but having one get dinner and one get breakfast and each taking 4-5 hours of sleep in the big seat shouldn't be a problem.

Hmm, I wasn't aware that this is possible - in fact, I see number of threads of "I tried to walk into F cabin and got yelled by FAs"...?

Here is one (not so recent) thread about it: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/conti...g-bf-seat.html. I couldn't find anything more recent but that one is pretty useful, I think.
