GJT-DEN-RIC x 2
GJT-DEN cleared at T-96 on XN tickets, plus at check-in counter for my son on separate XN reservation (as 1K companion).
DEN-RIC cleared at T-36 on XN tickets; was #1 and 2 when the WL became visible. There were seven seats available, yet UA made me and my wife waiting for extra 60 hours. Service on flight was excellent, including dinner.😄😄

I'm flying BTV-EWR-IAD later today.
I'm expecting to clear BTV-EWR via CPU: 5 seats open, with me #1 on the list. (Will confirm once that clears.)
EWR-IAD looked like zero chance, with 2 available and me 6 on the list. (Not that I care for that flight, though lie-flat 752 is better than Y even on a 50 minute flight.) I went to look at upgrade offers a few minutes ago, and they had PZ1. Yes, I threw 20 points at it, given how many I typically waste come January. Skipped over 5 folks for the seat. There are now 33 on the list for the last F seat. Guess it's at least somewhat elite heavy for a Sunday in the middle of a holiday weekend.

So I cleared BTV-EWR as expected. Asked for 4A at check in, was told, "We're processing upgrades soon." First one to clear... And got 2D, sigh.
