Does this mean it's too early or not eligible at all?
T and C of Upgrade Bid

B. Eligibility

  1. Participation in Upgrade Bid promotion is by invitation only and Cathay has the right to determine eligibility at its sole and absolute discretion. Not all passengers will be extended an invitation.
    Only passengers with confirmed ticket documentation purchased for travel with Cathay under select booking classes may be eligible to make an offer in Upgrade Bid, for the opportunity to upgrade from the cabin class originally purchased to the next higher cabin class (“Offer”)
AFAIK Q is not included in that "selection"
