This bidding for upgrades presents an interesting dilemma for me for an upcoming flight YYZ-YVR as a platinum tier. Client had their travel agent book an econo-flex fare for me. So do I...
1. Be patient and hope that I get automagically upgraded to premium for free with my platinum status? Typically happens between 24-36 hours before departure.
2. Buy an upgrade at 48 hours before departure?
3. Play the bidding game now?

Several decisions to make here!!!
