They might as well operate a budget airline...Looks like they upgraded 19 people from Y to J, not a spare seat left in either Y or J, but all F seats remained unfilled.
Pity EK looks after QF WP better than QF does.
not had one upgrade in 5 years as WP
and I fly international J (A380) quite a bit

Just checked in online and got bumped to Club World from World Traveller Plus for a LHR - ORD flight tomorrow .......my first upgrade in a very very long time
Were you able to get a 'decent' seat in CW ie aisle or window or are you stuck in the middle?
I dream of a upgrade

Struggled to read after the "whom", but just for sheets and goggles:
With supposedly the entire row to yourself, why would you settle for the middle seat? I'd go for for 27D...
Even assuming you could see 7C the whole time, it being empty doesn't preclude "operational constraints".
Or maybe Ms. 2B picked up on your vibe and wanted to spare 7B.
It was meant to be an entertaining anecdote, let me be...
Although, hindsight is a beautiful thing, I probably should have realised her witchcraft when she put me in the middle seat...
In fact there was a whole lot of empty seats that flight, maybe you're right about sparing 7B, I probably looked horrific after the work function the night before. Good call, trixydoza.
Interesting experience none the less.
I think I would still be giving feedback to QF. You were 'sold' the seat move on the grounds that you had a whole row to yourself. This was not the case. You were lied to. This is not the first report of QF staff lying about the reasons for a seat change. The seat change in itself is acceptable as QF reserve that right, however the lying by staff is totally unacceptable.
I had quietly settled into 4D (737-800) on a recent QF flight when the CSM approached me after take-off. She had seen that I had had a couple of service failures recently and would like to make it up to me. I was ushered forward to 3D with all the benefits associated with J. I also walked off the plane with 2 bottles of wine!
I think that is my third mid-air op-up. I have only ever had one beep at the gate.
Let's just say that they were 'catering' related.What were the service failures?
