Dear crocodile,
Thank you for your prompt reply- greatly appreciate it!
I seldom fly CX these days as i try to stick my itinerary to Skyteam due to my FFP. But when i do- it's mainly because they have really good price!
Oh no- seems like i am up against on many CX MPC members then

. Yep- stranger things happen- completely agree with you. I was traveling on a deeply discounted ticket last year and was upgraded to J at the gate.
Fingers crossed all will work out well!
Have a nice day ahead.
