Couple of data points for some of my upcoming trips:

I have a one-way SEA-LAX-OGG. There was an upgrade offer after I booked but shortly after booking I waitlisted RUCs and now there's no UG offer displayed.

I have a trip to Florida next January. Initial offering was around $300 each way. I didn't bite. Then oddly, it only gave me an option to buy up for the return. First time it was $149 for JAX-ATL-SEA. I didn't jump on it. Next time I logged in, it was over $500+ for JAX-SEA. I regretted not jumping at the $149 offer. The next day I saw $149 for JAX-ATL-SEA again and jumped on it this time. Still no offer for the outbound (SEA-JAX).
