When would the bid's clear? If it is anytime after 24hrs after booking, then that would mean no more advanced upgrades. Most of my business travel has transitioned to domestic only which I like. I typically use GPUs on leisure travel (since a lot of flexibility is required). If I cannot get upgraded at booking, I would likely decide to cancel the trip entirely as using up my GPU is one of the reasons for the trip in the first place.
