If you do not receive an upgrade email confirming your upgrade before you check in, your request will be automatically transferred to the airport standby list. Upgrades on the airport standby list will be processed by taking into account the following:
Altitude status level
Booking class
Time of check-in
The official policy is actually that all PY clears first before moving on to Y.

Upgrades cleared at the airport

1. Cabin - that is to say, the below criteria prioritise PY over Y
2. Altitude status level
3. Fare class
4. Time of check-in


Here is the reference to the official policy from Ben
