... mmm ... Not so sure.
1) If your parents received the mail, lots of others did also. And some may jump on the occasion.
2) Plat / Gold / Silver will be ahead of you, and chances are, there are enough of them to fill JCL (or even FCL).

Op-Up is a bet. The lower you are on skywards, the slimier the chance to be upgraded.
