Can anyone advise whether this complimentary upgrade is likely to happen ?
I have never had this situation before.
Thanks !
Very common. Y over sells but they have open F seats. There is undoubtedly multiple people with upgrade requests in (miles or SWUs).... You will see more seats on the map, but a low number of F for sale. Like F1, F2.
Revenue management leaves it like this until day of. Maybe they sell a few high $$ F seats, but they dont want to move people of Y a that will just allow their system to further oversell Y- but then they wont have F space to move them into!
Replace J for F and still applies.
I would not count on an op up as they would upgrade plats and golds before your free op. 22 days away you might not clear at this point.
