That is unreal

I know that on my route the F and CW cabins are rammed with either staff or op-ups but there is hardly any ability this year to UuA. So I'd love to know who gets the upgrades,when they get them (is it done at the check in desk which I never use)how it's determined who gets them, status,fare class or who you know at BA?
