AC737 YYZ-SFO Aug 11th - Op Up Likely?
Hi everyone,

I'm travelling on AC737 tomorrow on a 3 cabin plane. I'm UA*G, and see:

J: 17/40 booked
PE: 10/40 booked
Y: full

There are 14 people on the standby list. Two questions:

1. What are my chances of being op upped to PE/J if I don't do anything?
2. Does it increase or decrease my chances of being op upped to J if I buy a LMU to PE? I assume it decreases my chances, as weight & balance would come from the back of the plane, and its less work for the GA to bump PE passengers up and fill PE with Y (twice the work).

Thanks in advance!
