YVR-YYZ and vice-versa

YVR-YYZ and back, $329 for both flights, T+, offered at OLCIs 24h out and again at kiosks 1-1.5hrs out when I reprinted my BPs. Outbound flight (AC34) was full, inbound (AC1167) about 70% full. Declined both.

This may not fall into the LMU category. I was offered an upgrade to J for LHR-YYZ (AC 849) yesterday for 398 GBP. I declined.

There was a sign offering 399 Euro LMUP at the check-in counter in Rome for my flight today from FCO-YYZ.

Declined as I was perfectly happy with my bulkhead seat.

YYZ > YVR, 19-Jul
AC137

17 hours before departure:
$329
Declined.

5 hours before departure:
Not offered.
(Co-incidentally, I had pulled up Seatcounter on this route -- as I needed a later flight; J was down to 2, so the lack of an Upgrade button on OLCI wasn't surprising.)

YUL --> LGA 17 July - offered at online check-in 1 1/2 hours before flight at $129.
LGA --> YUL 19 July - offered at online check-in at 10 am and also at kiosk 1 1/2 hours before flight, also $129.
Declined due to short duration of the flight.

Due to turbulence, only front cabin got served drinks on YUL --> LGA, so maybe I should have accepted? (expensive drink for $129, though!)

AC 8591 YXE-YYC $99 + tax offered at OLCI last night (C5, J5, Z5). Changed my flight to AC 8587 this AM, and was offered the same option (C8, J8, Z8).

1 hour flight, no MLL in YXE (the worst airport in Canada), no dice. That would have been one pricey cheese plate!

YVR to SFO $199

YVR - SFO
$199 at OLCI
Night before departure (about 13 hours prior)
Declined.

Back of the plane looked full at check-in, but I'm in bulkhead seats on a 2-2 configuration plane. Sitting one row further up just ain't worth it, though I did use a NA UG cert on the way here.

Eze - yyz us $680

I just came back this morning from EZE. I was offered an upgrade for $680. At first I thought it may have been 680 Peso (which I may have considered), but alas it was in $US ??

Like many who have posted before me, I decided 12A was probably good enough based on this price. J was very empty from EZE-SCL and not full on SCL-YYZ, so unlike SHAREHOLDER, no op ups either way (although the person sitting beside me from SCL-EZE on Thursday was led up to the front by a FA - he was also Elite)

YYZ - ORD, 24 hours before from Tango+, July 31 AC511, 129+tax = 135.45 per person. Space for myself and traveling companion available. Declined.

Checked right after on AC.com and J=2, and guessing I=2 as a dummy booking for 2 showed flight space to upgrade with a cert.

Checked friends in on YYZ-LIM today and they were both offered upgrades of $699 CAD. Declined. They were booked in B and H class and since it was an old, non XMd 763...why bother?
