The supervisor approved 8K for me so all was good. Cabin was full because buy up was only 1k from IAH-TPE which I thought was cheap.
Lowest buy up i've seen was 1100 via UA. CA does bidding but it's not consistent.

Was this near departure date? I'm looking at getting 8A and 8D, though I should be able to get 8A after I ticket my infant ticket, but 8D seems to be blocked too, is 8D bassinet too, or how should I go about requesting for supervisor approval?

Bulkhead Row 1 & 8 is not open to regular members. Maybe for Diamond but I know they are blocked for all of us.

At check-in 3 hours before flight, they still need supervisor approval for Rows 1, 2, and 8. Maybe more but from what the supervisor was saying he first approved us at Row 2 and I asked for an bulkhead. Looking back, bulkhead isn't an diff since the foot wells are built into the galley equipment.

Does that apply to non BR *G members?
