Flying with my FO wife, AUS-DTW this morning on an award ticket. Got called up to the podium by the (awesome) gate agent, who asked me who my best friend was that day.
I, rather glumly, expecting she was going to offer me (and me alone) an upgrade, even though I was on the same PNR as Mrs. Toast, suggested that my wife was my best friend that day, so I'd have to say no to the upgrade.
But... surprise. Oversold in the back, and both of us wound up in F, so, technically an op-up for the Mrs. A couple of non-revs also in F, too, so... very interesting, very nice, and very unexpected.
Despite all the customer service nastiness coming from ATL, the line people seem to be doing their best to make us happy.
Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in...
