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.
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.)
Programs: SPG, AC, UA, HH, and the other usual suspects

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!)
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.
Programs: AC*E, SPG Plat, Fairmont no more, National Executive

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)
Location: YYC, AS MVP til 2007 (or 2061!), AC Elite (again), UA Basic, AA Basic, SPG Gold, FPC Platinum, HH Gold, Hertz Presidents Circle

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?
