First time for this type of op-up
 

As regulars know, I've been thankful for my treatment over the years. I've been op-upped systemwide by NW, KL and AF on numerous occasions into WBC and EA and even EP.

But today, a new experience....an op-up on the 753 from SEA to HNL. Yes, I know, the F cabin on the 753 is hardly comparable to WBC. But the fact that I've flown the 753 HNL routes on numerous occasions in the past, usually from LAX or SEA, and I've never been upped on such a route before, is surprising to me. For example, on two occasions, on giant Asia or Europe itins that included HNL, the only legs on which I was not op-upped were the HNL ones.

I was tired today, so it was welcome, 753 or no.

And Deltalina is soooo intolerable...but that's another thread.

You may remember Max Miles from the fully excoriated NWA contest two years back.

Apparently "Mix Master Miles" has no such reticence about Ms. Deltalina.

Rumor has it, that the "merger" was a, "let me, let me, upgrade ya, grade ya," proposition from the very start. Max fell for it hook line and sinker.

Or coke-lines and hooker.

got a SEA-HNL OPUP last December ... nice surprise for me as well ^

I believe one of the first op-ups I ever received was on HNL-SEA. I had an exit row seat for the red-eye flight and towards the end of boarding, another person came on and was also assigned to the same seat. The GA took both of our BPs and then gave me an op-up to the last F seat available since I was plat saying that my status trumped whatever she had. I enjoyed it because this was the last flight on my trip back from Asia (SIN-NRT-HNL-SEA), and I needed the rest because I was planning on going right into work as soon as I landed.

Just wag your finger at your seatmate when she does it and have fun with it. ;)

Congrats on your 1000th post.
