Strangely, on my birthday (same route), I was the only one upgraded at the gate. I think that while the system catches the birthday on the exact date, I am assuming that there may be a +/- allowance?
As you said, HKG-MNL is an op-up heavy route. I believe they may as well op-up both of you anyway, esp since both of you were SLs.
