To clarify, Medallions do get comp upgrades on all non-BE international flights.

Picking a random point on Expertflyer, DL393 is wide open up front (and in the back) every day from 9/12-9/18.
I second orlandodlplat. You have a great chance of the free upgrade on ATL-PTY as a silver. There are not that many elites who travel to Central/South America on a regular basis. If there are, they're going to BusinessElite-served destinations to places like Brazil.

I'd say your chances are higher than 75% for the upgrade.
