Thanks for your reply WineCountryUA
Yes that's my understanding too on the sequence of priority. However I'm pretty sure it's not due to the availability. I usually sit 3A or 3D, and I could tell by peeking at F cabin. It was never full, most of time it was just up to half (3 out of 6) seats occupied.

Appears your fare class is fine and the automatic upgrade request is occurring. The problem may be availability, the upgrade is not done a ticketing.
This type of upgrade is similar to an e500 upgrade and will not clear until 72 hours or less prior to flight time. The standard A/C for this YYC-SFO run is an E70 with just 6 first class seats. With just 6 F seats, availability is going to be an issue. 1K/GS will clear first and a seat or two will be held until the Gate for last minute purchases.
(OT, but in E+ on an E70 I always pick 3C or any of the row 3 seats)
When you say half of F is open. Is this at ticketing? based on seats maps? -- seat maps are not an accurate view of availability.
So what else I should do to make a request?
