I'm GS and using GPUs with "Upgrade requested" showing on the reservation.

Any idea why no upgrade availability since booking eight weeks ago? Any experience with IAH-LHR upgrades clearing? Should I start searching for a different connection (we're going to IST so can connect in FRA, AMS, MUC)?

If I can't get a confirmed upgrade, I may look to TK direct or another *A partner.

Thanks,

Being GS I'd leave it alone.. especially because when it gets closer if it doesn't look good on those particular flights you can change the ticket to something else with better availability.
