Obviously Deluxe room upgrades are rarer than View room upgrades.
There are numerous cases reported here and elsewhere where people could see better rooms available on the website but yet did not receive upgrades to those rooms because the hotel simply said there are no rooms available.
Bottom line is, don't expect much in terms of upgrades, even if you're a globalist.
In that case I book the room. Oh wow, so an Opera Deluxe room is available at $1500? And only at $1500 and not using points? I don't think so.
