Because I have a connecting flight to SIN on AC6301. SQ agent told me that I won't be able to select my seat until check-in. Therefore, considering HKG time is 13 hrs ahead of YYZ, I'd like to do OLCI with AC and select my seat on the SQ operated AC6301. Now I'm a bit confused whether to do OLCI or not. My first goal is to get upgraded on AC15. Any advice? Thanks.
You should try to do OLCI as early as possible. Sometimes you can't until all flights are within 24 hours or so of departure. So keep trying, and if all else fails get to the airport early.
