Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that even a GO/SL traveling exactly on one's birthday would be ahead of op-ups.
On the other hand, I think I have confused some members here. What actually happened was that I think my family member (DM) was upgraded on the YVR to JFK leg because of my birthday. As in, two of us, sharing the same surname, were clearly
travelling together to start. However, F class only had a seat left for me and not my companion. Upon landing YVR, F class opened up more so my companion was also upgraded to F. I can reasonably assume that if it wasn't my birthday, my DM companion would not been upgraded at all because J wasn't full from YVR to JFK.

I believe it is an unpublished perk for MPC members only. So my answer would be no, only members with a status have a
chance.
