Hello to everyone here! I've been reading this forum for some time and just decided to register to greet all of you.

I will be traveling HKG-ORD 31May (CX806) and ORD-HKG on 5Jun (CX807). Both L class in Y.

This is my first long haul trip since achieving GO after some SL years. Was hoping for op-up. But then when I checked ExperFlyer.com and also with MPC hotline (after a long time waiting of course), it seems that J is full to the brim (probably only 1-2 full fare J class seats left) for both flights; while Y (and F) seems wide open, so op-up probably no hope...

I'm wondering if it is worth it to upgrade my ticket (L -->K) and then waitlist to upgrade to J by using AM? Is there practically no hope that CX will op-up some J to F just to accommodate my miles upgrade?

Thanks in advance everybody
