Your best bet is with vouchers as if the flight is quite full then they won't upgrade you with miles and when you check in that might be too late. If you wait list with vouchers then you have a chance to upgrade till the flight closes.
good advice....but if you don't have vouchers then your best bet is to keep calling & pestering them about the upgrade....
