Saw HUN/A on an upgrade list recently flying to SAN.
Apparently the hordes have decided to pillage So Cal beach destinations...
Ironically, I worked for several years with a woman who's name would have appeared as HUN/A on a UA upgrade list. She wasn't on the flight.

Speaking for myself (and not the other volunteer moderators), I'm OK with the thread as long as the posts don't violate the FT Rules and Guidelines. The rule against posting "Obscene or Offensive Language" is one that comes to mind, and I'd ask posters not explicitly post abbreviations that would be in violation of this.

Folks, making up names that result in crude and vulgar abbreviations are both inappropriate and off-topic (We've had to delete a few posts as a result). It's up to you if this thread remains open or not...

A friendly reminder of the above is needed.

I was on the upgrade list just below a BOO/R last week. Bet I was more polite about it

ANG/R on my last flight
Seeing as s/he was toward the bottom of the list, I understand the sentiment.
