Given the recent changes to the BF upgrade policy, we could assume the success rate to be 100% if any BF seat goes out empty. Similarly, CO48 only has 14 seats booked with 2 upgrades. CO 28, though, yea, that looks like a tough nut to crack on a Sunday.
I wanted to measure upgrades as a factor of capacity not specific seats booked, because capacity is a constant while the number of revenue pax per flight will obviously vary.
It is interesting to note that there are upgraded passengers on completely full flights awhile some flights that are 75% empty have no upgrades and no one on the upgrade standby list.
