Karma, or tweet?

The FA did a fab job handling this guy during the flight, avoiding any escalation every time he complained. Kudos to her! Later he even complained to me that his luggage was taking too long to come out. I was not as friendly as the FA!

Probably just karma, but I've sometimes wondered if there wasn't a quick tweet to a ramper involved.

As mentioned in this thread. Even celebrities do stupid things.

Jennifer Lopez tweeted a photo of her ticket to Brazil for the World Cup... with her feet on the seatback.

I Googled it, seems Tiana Ross is J Lo's cousin and does nanny duties. Shame she missed out on a lot of Skymiles for that flight.

Looks like they both did. Neither one of those BPs has a SM # on it.

There's actually quite a bit of curiosity about that in the other thread. Also there appears to be a third BP behind J. Lo's that also has a handwritten BE assignment.

Perhaps there were empty BE seats and, since DL enjoys grabbing anyone's money they can, maybe she offered to buy-up to J for her friends/guests? Regardless, seeing as she's a big shot celebrity (I could honestly care less, but whatever) and has oodles of money, I would not at all be surprised if there was some sort of buy-up that went on, whether at the gate or the SC or wherever. If you're worth 300 million, a couple thousand plus a change fee can't be that bad
Anyway, the celebrity sightings thread gives me the impression lots of celebs/VIPs/politicians/etc are frequent travelers on DL, and DL likes taking lots of money from anyone who travels with them, so...I bet she threw money at them (with the assistance of fame). Who knows, though.

Could be wrong, but I think it's a 73H. Last time I flew one I was in 1B and was comfortable enough, but it was a morning flight TPA-JFK. Not sure I would have felt the same on a 5 hour redeye.

Yes, a 73H. Rivaled only by row 1 of a 739.

A buy up is certainly understandable, but then why the handwritten BP changes? Surely if they were swiping a credit card they would have just printed out new BPs for the upgraded pax.
