Correct. Rules say no waitlisted instrument upgrades within 24 hours of departure. Here is the specific rule:
New waitlist requests for MileagePlus Upgrade Awards, Regional Premier Upgrades, and Global Premier Upgrades can be made until 24 hours prior to departure.
Occasionally agents will bend the rule.
