Continental is unlikely to match AC status.
And even if, you would not get systemwide upgrades until you earned them.

You will not get an upgrade on this route - you have better odds at 6/49.
There will be enough oil traffic to fill the front cabin.

Maybe if you ask nicely, they will give you an exit row for free - but again, unlikely.
