Yesterday, I was #1 on the CPU. There was one more C passenger that didn't check in. When I was at the boarding lane, GA says not going to clear upgrade. Then as I walk to the plane, he yelled out to me that looks like I will make it and asked me to come back to wait a couple minutes while they get me a new BP.
About 5 minutes later, the GA processing my BP says, oh I'm so sorry, that guy just checked in 30 seconds ago at the check in counter.
I'm not asking about why I didn't get it or if I'm bitter etc. It's fine because he paid for C and if it were me, I'd want to sit there.
The question is what would have happened if I got my upgrade and then that other passenger checks in? Will GA or FA escort me to the back of the bus? Anyone with similar experiences?
yes, 30 seconds.
